N-12 Dual Wall Pipe

The Dual Wall N-12 pipe, with its smooth interior wall and corrugated exterior, offers exceptional hydraulics and strength. Built using application-specific high-density polyethylene, Dual Wall N-12 corrugated pipe also provides superior corrosion and abrasion resistance. This makes it an excellent alternative to reinforced concrete (RCP) and corrugated metal pipe (CMP).

ADS, Inc. Drainage Handbook Specifications 1-3 N-12 ST IB PIPE (ASTM F2648) SPECIFICATION
Scope
This specification describes 4- through 60-inch (100 to 1500 mm) N-12 ST IB pipe (per ASTM F2648) for use in gravity-flow land drainage applications.
Pipe Requirements
N-12 ST IB pipe (per ASTM F2648) shall have a smooth interior and annular exterior corrugations.
4- through 60-inch (100 to 1500 mm) pipe shall meet ASTM F2648.
Mannings n value for use in design shall be 0.012.
Joint Performance
Pipe shall be joined using a bell & spigot joint meeting ASTM F2648. The joint shall be soil-tight and gaskets for diameters 12- through 60-inch, shall meet the requirements of ASTM F477. For diameters 4- through 10-inch, the joint shall be soil-tight using an engaging dimple connection. Gaskets shall be installed by the pipe manufacturer and covered with a removable, protective wrap to ensure the gasket is free from debris. A joint lubricant available from the manufacturer shall be used on the gasket and bell during assembly.
Fittings
Fittings shall conform to ASTM F2306. Bell and spigot connections shall utilize a welded bell and valley or saddle gasket meeting the soil-tight joint performance requirements of ASTM F2306.
Material Properties
Material for pipe production shall be an engineered compound of virgin and recycled high density polyethylene conforming with the minimum requirements of cell classification 424420C (ESCR Test Condition B) for 4- through 10-inch (100 to 250 mm) diameters, and 435420C (ESCR Test Condition B) for 12- through 60-inch (300 to 1500 mm) diameters, as defined and described in the latest version of ASTM D3350, except that carbon black content should not exceed 4%. The design engineer shall verify compatibility with overall system including structural, hydraulic, material, and installation requirements for a given application.
Installation
Installation shall be in accordance with ASTM D2321 and ADS recommended installation guidelines, with the exception that minimum cover in trafficked areas for 4- through 48-inch (100 to 1200 mm) diameters shall be one foot. (0.3 m) and for 60-inch (1500 mm) diameter the minimum cover shall be 2 ft. (0.6 m) in single run applications. Backfill for minimum cover situations shall consist of Class 1 (compacted) or Class 2 (minimum 90% SPD) material. Maximum fill heights depend on embedment material and compaction level; please refer to Technical Note 2.02.
