Due to Ductile Iron pipe’s exceptional strength and
durability, it can be used in a wide variety of wastewater applications.
Ductile Iron pipe is
utilized for innovative
solutions of sewerage piping problems. Illustrated is an
“at grade” gravity sewer.
Well-suited for difficult installations due to its inherent strength, Ductile Iron
is an excellent piping material for use in gravity sewer
applications. Its superior ring strength, combined with
its bottle-tight joints, makes it ideally suited for deep
trenches and installations in areas of high water table.
Ductile Iron pipe has long
been the material of choice for water and waste water treatment plant piping due to its wide selection of
joints and fittings and the fact that it can be
fabricated for any application.

Ductile Iron is well-suited
for use in pipe-on-supports
applications due to its tremendous beam strength
Ductile Iron pipe is often
used for inverted siphons in
difficult installations such as the stream crossing
shown
here because of its great strength, joint integrity, and
its versatile and readily available joints
and fittings.
