Is anyone aware of a significant difference in HOBAS Centrifugally Cast Reinforced Polymer Pipe vs. Flowtite Pipe. I believe that the only difference is in the manufacturing process. There may also be a difference in performance and durability.

Are they equals? Anyone with experience with the two types of pipe?

Thanks

I am specifying HOBAS on a jacking project for a large storm drain. However, have not compared to Flowtite.

It appears that flowtite is relatively new in the US. The product manual mentions jacking, but I didn't see a section specifically on jacking pipe. The couplings didn't appear to be flush, allowing the pipe to be jacked.
