CONTINUUM™ DGDB-2490 BK

Supplied byDow- Last Updated on May 16, 2025

CONTINUUM™ DGDB-2490 BK by Dow is a bimodal polyethylene (PE) grade. Posesses good toughness at low temperature, high tensile strength & modulus and exhibits high temperature/ pressure performance. Used in natural gas distribution pipes, industrial piping, sewage and municipal water service lines. Recommended for pipe applications that requires long term hydrostatic strength & slow crack growth resistance and rapid crack propagation. Complies with European Commission Regulation (EU) No 10/2011, REACH, RoHS and Canadian Environmental Protection Agency (CEPA) regulations. Conforms to Plastics Pipe Institue (PPI), ASTM D 3350 cell classification PE234373E, ASTM PE 4710, ISO PE 2708 and ISO PE 100 pipe industrial standards.
