TRUSS PIPE

With more than 40 years of successful in-service use and hundreds of millions of feet installed, CONTECH TRUSS PIPE® is the unchallenged performer. No other thermoplastic gravity sewer pipe offers the same degree of proven in-ground performance. A unique, semi-rigid wall design consists of a double-wall system with concentric inner and outer walls braced by a truss-type structure. The truss voids are filled with lightweight Mearlcrete. TRUSS PIPE’s 200 psi minimum pipe stiffness provides unparalleled deflection control among thermoplastic gravity sewer pipe. Its strength, stiffness, joint tightness, durability, and economy have made TRUSS PIPE the choice for engineers, specifiers, community officials, and contractors.

Product Highlights: TRUSS PIPE




  • Wall and truss structure formed in a seamless, single thermoplastic extrusion of PVC, providing excellent resistance to chemicals normally found in sanitary systems
  • Watertight joints result in extremely low infiltration rates
  • Choose either gasketed joints that meet the performance requirements of ASTM D 3212 or solvent-welded joints that meet the requirements of ASTM 2680, Section 10.4.1
  • High-stiffness pipe design minimizes deflection at pipe joints, preventing ground water infiltration
  • High-stiffness and beam strength keep TRUSS PIPE straight and round, reducing stoppages
  • Glossy smooth interior with a Manning’s “n” value of 0.009 reduces internal flow resistance
  • Available in 8”, 10”, 12”, and 15” diameters
