INTRODUCTION
Through a committed, quality focused and comprehensive research program and development,
Shield has become a leader in manufacturing and supply of high quality HDPE piping systems.
Shield HDPE pipes and fittings are manufactured as per ISO and AWWA Standards from its
manufacturing facilities located in Dubai, U.A.E. Products must pass strict quality control
procedures and are routinely checked throughout the production process, from the inspection of
incoming raw materials, to the storage of the finished products to ensure they are fully compliant
with the relevant standards. Continual improvements, innovative production techniques and
review of existing facilities are always carried out without affecting the consistency of the
production process at the factory.
Shield High Density polyethylene pipes and fittings are extremely tough, durable and strong for
long service, trouble free installation, flexibility and offer many other features. Therefore, Shield
HDPE piping system is an effective solution for municipal, industrial, marine, agricultural and fire
fighting applications. Its efficiency has been tested and proven for above ground, surface, buried,
slip lined, floating and sub-surface marine applications.
Shield HDPE is capable of meeting all your piping requirements.

PIPE SELECTION
Design Engineers choose Shield PE100 piping system, as
the system provides larger bore size because of its lower
wall thickness. Moreover, at the same working pressure,
designers can opt for lower SDR level pipe than in PE80
piping system.

FITTINGS
Shield HDPE system offers electrofusion fittings which are
easy to use and offer high performance along with a rapid,
convenient method of joining with Shield polyethylene
pipes. Their design ensures optimum melt pressure as the
energizing coil of wire is precisely positioned to ensure
uniform melting.
Each fitting displays a bar code label that enables the
automatic Electro fusion control units (ECUs) to scan the
barcode and determine the fusion parameters. Fittings are
offered in PE100 Black or Blue & PE80 Yellow, size up to
400mm, (with larger couplers upto 710mm progressively
available from the production line.)
The Long Spigot range offers a comprehensive choice of
fittings suitable for Butt-Fusion. Products are offered in PE100
Black or Blue & PE80 Yellow.
