HDPE EX3, also referred to as GM 5010 T2N, is a high molecular weight, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) copolymer developed as a general-purpose resin for both pressure and non-pressure pipes. Classified as a PE80 grade material, it combines mechanical strength, long-term performance, and reliability for modern infrastructure and industrial applications.
Produced as a bimodal HDPE resin with 1-butene as a comonomer, it is manufactured via suspension polymerization of ethylene monomer. Its formulation provides excellent pressure resistance, thermal stability, and durability, ensuring a minimum service life of 50 years under proper operating conditions.

High Impact Resistance
HDPE EX3 provides outstanding impact strength, allowing products to withstand shocks, drops, and mechanical stress without cracking or breaking. Its flexibility and toughness extend the service life of finished goods, ensuring reliable performance in demanding applications.
Extraordinary Hydrostatic Resistance
This grade is engineered for long-term hydrostatic strength, enabling pipes to resist internal fluid or gas pressures over decades of use without rupturing or deforming. Unlike metals, it does not rust and its flexibility allows it to accommodate ground movement, making it highly suitable for pipeline applications.
Good ESCR (Environmental Stress Crack Resistance)
With excellent resistance to cracking under mechanical stress and environmental exposure, HDPE EX3 ensures durability and longevity. It maintains structural integrity even in harsh operating conditions, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
Excellent Chemical Resistance
HDPE EX3 demonstrates strong resistance to a wide range of chemicals, acids, bases, and solvents. This property allows it to retain its shape, appearance, and functionality in chemically challenging environments, ensuring safety and durability in industrial and infrastructure applications.
HDPE EX3 is engineered for high-performance pipe and fitting applications where high-density polyethylene resins are required. Its combination of strength, durability, and reliability makes it a versatile choice across infrastructure, industrial, and rural sectors.
