polyethylene tubing Polyethylene Tubing

Oxford Plastics Inc. manufactures polyethylene tubing for distribution throughout Canada and the United States. Made by extrusion in sizes of 5/16" (8mm) to 4" (100mm), our hdpe tubing offers long term ruggedness that is flexible, lightweight and corrosion resistant. With excellent flow rates, our poly tubing systems are the perfect solution for a variety of application. If you want to become a member of our network as a distributor of our hdpe tubing for your own industry and customers, please contact us today and we will gladly answer any of your questions.

For over twenty-five years we have manufactured plastic polyethylene tubing for a wide range of industrial, commercial and residential applications. Some of the more popular applications of our poly tubing includes agricultural drainage and irrigation, culverts, foundation pipe, landfill collection pipe, ventilation, hydronic, and geothermal heating pipe. Our extensive experience with industries from construction and waste to agriculture and mining, has helped us to develop hdpe tubing and piping systems that are highly looked upon in both utility and price.

Why Choose Polyethylene Tubing?
As a tubing solution, polyethylene is chosen for one important reason above all others. Choosing the right kind of tubing material for your project is not easy when you require strong durability as well as lightweight flexibility for easy handling and installation. Before plastic tubing was invented, this was not even a consideration. Tubing and piping contractors were limited to one of two possibilities: either concrete or metal, both of which were strong and durable, but difficult to handle and to install due to their weight and stiffness. Prior to the invention of polyethylene in the 1950s, plastic tubing was easy enough to handle and to install, but limited in strength and durability. That all changed with polyethylene. Tubing contractors now had the best of both worlds, with one added bonus. Not only was hdpe tubing durable and easy to install, it could be joined together by heat fusion making it leak free. This promised long lasting service with little or no maintenance.

Applications for Polyethylene Tubing
One of the most popular uses of our hdpe tubing includes drip irrigation which uses 1/2, 3/4 and 1" tubing as the main water delivery to the drippers and micro sprinklers. Other applications for plastic tubing include the transportation of corrosive or solvent chemicals, coolants, high temperature or heating fluids, hydraulic fluids, oils and/or other fuels, pneumatic or compressed air, refrigerants, sanitary waste water, slurry, and water.
