PIPE
U.S. Composite Pipe, Inc. offers both open cut and micro-tunnel installed pipe designs. Our pipe diameters are designed around current ASTM C-76 sizes. Our product is well suited for the high axial thrust loads required to push the pipe during installation of a micro-tunnel pipeline. The corrosion resistant polymer concrete makes the use of our product a single pass system without the requirement to come back and line the pipe or insert a carrier pipe. When our pipe is used in an open cut or direct bury installation, the pipe is installed in the same manner as reinforced concrete pipe. Since our product is steel reinforced, we build it to ASTM C-76 pipe specifications. The pipe is classified by the same strength class number used for RCP. When our pipe is installed in an open cut installation, the same RCP bedding type is utilized.
Advantages of USCP pipe:
• Corrosion resistant material, requires no coating or lining
• Designed to be used as a single pass system
• High compressive strength
• Rigid material
• Steel reinforced

Rubber Gasket Joints
USCP utilizes a rubber gasket on all of our round structures. The gasket and joint are designed to meet the requirements of ASTM C443 in order to provide a long term watertight joint. The profile shape of our joint is designed as the same profile used by standard...
Is Higher Compression Strength Better
How important is the compressive strength of polymer concrete? Polymer concrete is known for having robust material properties. Both compressive and tensile properties of polymer concrete will typically exceed those of a standard Portland cement concrete. Along with...
