HDPE Granules / GP50 Granules
GP50 is a black, reprocessed high-density polyethylene compound supplied by Grano Pipe Industries for pipe manufacturing. The supplied technical data sheet describes a stabilized bimodal HDPE compound and records a typical melt flow index of 0.7–1 g/10 min at 190°C under a 5 kg load.
Available in 25 kg net moisture-proof bags, GP50 is accompanied by typical mechanical and processing properties to support material selection. Share your intended application, quantity and pipe sizes with our team to discuss your requirement.
GP50 Granules are a black HDPE compound intended for pipe production. The supplied data sheet describes a formulation based on selected bimodal HDPE resin with carbon black and antioxidant.
Its typical properties include a density of 0.950–0.962 g/cm³, tensile strength at yield of 19–22 MPa and elongation at break above 400%. The specification table also includes flexural modulus, notched impact strength, hardness, Vicat softening point and environmental stress crack resistance.
Packaging: 25 kg net moisture-proof poly bags.
Storage and handling: Store the granules in their original packaging in a shaded area, away from sunlight and moisture, at an ambient temperature not exceeding 50°C. The data sheet recommends use within 12 months of production and drying before use.
Review the technical data sheet alongside your processing and end-use requirements. Contact Grano Pipe Industries for further material information and to discuss your production needs.
