BLACK MAX RIBBED DRAINAGE PIPE 225MM X 6M POLY IPLEX GR8225 at a glance

BlackMAX offers exceptional hydraulic and structural performance and is recognised for its durability and low cost benefits compared with other conventional drainage pipes.

Manufactured from polypropylene, BlackMAX drainage pipes are resistant to corrosive and aggressive ground conditions, resulting in years of corrosion free service.

Australian water agencies require pipe systems used for water, sewerage and drainage have a realistic life expectancy of at least 100 years.

BlackMAX, has been appraised by WSAA and deemed to meet this requirement.

BlackMAX pipes and fittings offer effective drainage solutions and are suitable for installation in the following applications:

Stormwater drainage pipelines

Road culverts

Gravity Sewer mains

Low head Irrigation

Rehabilitation (as liner pipe)

Ventilation ducts

Leachate collection

Stormwater retention systems

Estuarine and Ocean outfalls

Features:

Durability:
The tough, ductile nature of polypropylene enable BlackMAX drainage pipes to resist impact sustained in course of transportation and site handling, without damage.

Abrasion and corrosion resistant:
Polypropylene tubes and fittings are notably resistant to abrasion and have excellent resistance to corrosive drainage.
The material is resistant to aggressive ground conditions, such as acid sulphate soils or saline ground waters.

Effective rubber ring joint:
Designed for ease of assembly and jointing. Pipes can be cut to length on site and rejoined.

Low embodied energy:
Environmental benefits.

Inground performance:
High tolerance to deformation and can accommodate soil movement without structural damage.

Smooth bore for hydraulic performance:
Combined with their high resistance to scale and sediment build up provides excellent hydraulic performance.
This can result in reduced grades to accomplish a given flow.

Lightweight for ease of installation:
Can be easily manoeuvred in confined areas by hand or with light lifting equipment.
Site handling and efficiency is therefore improved, which can result in significant savings on installation.

Shipping & Delivery

This item is available for local delivery or pickup. Delivery along the east coast is cost-effective — please contact us for a delivery quote. For orders over $1,000, contact us about delivery direct from the manufacturer.

Lay the pipe in a trench at least 300mm deep to protect from stock traffic and UV damage. Connect sections using barb fittings with stainless steel clamps, ensuring a secure seal by pushing the pipe firmly onto the barb until it seats completely. For above-ground installations, use compression fittings to allow easy disconnection when needed. Always flush the system before connecting to troughs to remove any debris from the pipe interior. Tips: In Queensland's climate, burying your polypipe extends its lifespan significantly—underground installations last 50+ years. For temporary above-ground runs, cover exposed sections with UV-protective shading or wrap to prevent degradation. Test your system at low pressure before connecting livestock to identify any leaks at fitting joints.

Common Questions

What is BlackMAX drainage pipe used for?

BlackMAX is suitable for a range of drainage and water applications including stormwater drainage pipelines, road culverts, gravity sewer mains, low head irrigation, pipe rehabilitation as a liner, ventilation ducts, leachate collection, stormwater retention systems, and estuarine and ocean outfalls.

How long will BlackMAX pipe last?

BlackMAX has been appraised by WSAA and is recognised as meeting the Australian water agencies' requirement for a realistic life expectancy of at least 100 years. It's manufactured from polypropylene, which is resistant to corrosion and aggressive ground conditions, so it provides years of corrosion-free service.

What are the main advantages of BlackMAX pipe?

BlackMAX offers exceptional hydraulic and structural performance with several key benefits: it's durable and resistant to impact damage during handling and transport; the polypropylene material resists abrasion and corrosion, including in aggressive ground conditions like acid sulphate soils and saline waters; it has a smooth bore for excellent hydraulic performance and resists scale and sediment build-up; and it's lightweight, making it easy to install by hand or with light lifting equipment in confined areas.

Can BlackMAX pipe be cut and rejoined on site?

Yes. BlackMAX pipes can be cut to length on site and rejoined thanks to their effective rubber ring joint design, which is made for ease of assembly.
