Dear Sirs,

We would like to know what should be the circumferential residual stress value of HDPE Pipes? How important are they?

How to measure these stress for a given HDPE pipe and How this value will affect on HDPE pipe during manufacturing if there is a variation in the value?

Thanks in Advance
