I have a chemical sewer that will be seeing Cl gas and weak HCl. What material is best to use? I am looking to replace a chemical sewer's manhole, and I have yet to find a company that can provide what we need.

If you need more information, just ask.

You should be able to find polyethylene fittings, if not fiberglass/epoxy, in manholes and covers. Sealing same might be an issue. Try talking to a local sewer/septic tank supply house, one that deals in plastic tanks.
 
I would evaluate a high silicon cast iron (Duriron) pipe and fittings commonly used for underground chemical sewer pipe and gratings. Look at ASTM A518 and A 861.
 
Thank you all for your replies. I will certainly investigate all suggestions. I'll give an update when complete!

Thanks again.
