• Stiffens the pipe so fittings do not crush when compressing

Details

The 20mm MDPE Pipe Liner is an essential component for ensuring a secure, long-term connection when using blue medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) pipe. Specifically, these stiffeners are inserted into the cut end of the pipe to maintain its circular shape and structural integrity under the pressure of a compression fitting. They are made from high-strength material designed to withstand underground conditions without corroding. Furthermore, they prevent the pipe from “creeping” or collapsing as the joint is tightened. Consequently, they are a must-have for any reliable underground water supply installation.

Connecting MDPE pipe often reveals a frustrating risk of leaks due to the pipe’s natural flexibility. Specifically, without internal support, the wall of the pipe can deform or “oval” when you tighten a heavy-duty coupling. This leads to a weak seal that might hold for a few days but eventually fails under the constant pressure of the mains water supply. Moreover, having to dig up a driveway or garden to fix a leaking joint is a nightmare scenario that is both expensive and time-consuming. However, this 20mm Pipe Stiffener eliminates this struggle entirely. Because it provides a rigid internal wall for the fitting to grip against, the joint stays perfectly circular and watertight. Therefore, you get a solid, permanent connection that gives you total peace of mind once the pipe is buried.
