Duker cast iron pipes from DEKS

DEKS Industries is proud to announce their appointment as exclusive Australian distributors of the Duker cast iron range. The cast iron pipes are Australian Standard approved (SMK 20057 / EN 877) and cast iron is also vandal and damage proof. The life expectancy for cast iron pipes can be up to 100 years or more due to proven cases of cast iron. Since 1913 Duker has been offering all material-related advantages which have been proven in cast iron such as high strength, resistance to wear, corrosion resistance and also non-combustibility which are all benefits to the cast iron drainage pipes.

Cast iron drainage pipes can be embedded in concrete. The cast iron expansion coefficient practically corresponds to that of concrete. When passing cast iron through walls and ceilings where a certain fire resistance duration is prescribed, the heat transmission through the cast iron pipes must be considered.

Cast iron has superior fire protection which means that non combustible cast iron pipes remain unchanged up to 400 Degrees Celsius. Cast iron pipes need no fire protection collars when penetrating through walls or ceilings as PVC piping systems require. Embedded graphite particles give cast iron excellent noise protection and cast iron density absorbs sound waves so there is no need for additional noise insulation to reduce waste water noise. This makes it the perfect drainage pipe system for residential or commercial developments.

Duker guarantees that the pipes, fittings and couplings supplied have been manufactured in accordance with the standards and approvals valid at the time of manufacturing. In the case of any defects, Duker will, during a 5 year period, replace defective parts free of charge.
