EAGLE CORR PE™ * - JM Eagle

Engineers, superintendents, contractors, foremen, and laying crews will findmuch to guide them in the following specifications. This booklet will also beof help in determining pipe needs when ordering.Pipe DesignThe corrugated HDPE pipe design evolved over the last 40 years from primarilyan agricultural drainage product to a dominant product in the entiredrainage market. This 40-year evolution has brought about many changes inpipe design and materials. JM Eagle’s Eagle Corr PE is the culmination ofthis evolution. Some of the terms used in this installation manual are definedin Figure 1 below.Dual GasketsHeavy Duty Integral BellDual Crown CorrugationHydraulically Smooth InteriorFigure 1Some of these innovations, such as the heavy duty integral bell, are a resultof innovations in manufacturing technology which was necessitated by aneed to have more robust bells for watertight applications—an evolution othersare attempting by wrapping bands around the bell of the pipe and othertypes of reinforcements. Other innovations, such as the inline bell and spigot,reduce the amount of skill necessary for the contractor and ensure consistentinvert grade. These and many more innovations in this pipe design arehighlighted in the installation instructions to follow.EAGLE CORR PE INSTALLATION GUIDE5
