IN CASE OF FIRE:
FM APPROVED PIPE
Gajeske stands out as a go-to solutions provider of FM Approved HDPE pipe and fittings for underground polyethylene fire protection systems, licensed by the Texas State Fire Marshal Office.
Factory Mutual Global Insurance, an international leader in the third-party certification of fire protection products, rigorously tests and evaluates HDPE fire protection products to ensure they meet strict quality standards. If it has the “FM APPROVED” mark, you know it’ll get the job done right.
Facilities that use high-pressure fire loop systems for fire protection need to know they can count on underground pipes to provide a robust and dependable water supply, protecting lives and property. FM Approved HDPE pipes and fittings from Gajeske are designed to do just that—and offer a long list of other benefits.
Rigorously Tested for Durability
The FM Approved HDPE products we supply undergo Factory Mutual’s hydrostatic test at four times the pipe’s pressure class for five minutes, and a stiffness test to ensure they won’t deflect more than 5% when properly buried up to 25 feet deep.
Built to Take the Pressure
FM Approved HDPE pipe holds strong under internal pressure and external loads, and it won’t rust, rot, corrode, or tuberculate over time. It stands up to corrosive chemicals across the full pH range (1 to 14) and doesn’t back down from aggressive soils. Even in the harshest environments, HDPE resists environmental stress cracking, delivering long-term, reliable performance.
MAXIMUM PROTECTION, LOWER COSTS
FM Approved HDPE pipe cuts costs from the start. It can lower insurance rates thanks to its low fire risk, and it installs faster thanks to its lightweight, easy-to-handle design. It needs minimal maintenance, keeps pumping costs down, and fits into narrower trenches, saving time, labor, and money every step of the way.
BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
HDPE pipe is a smarter choice for the environment. It doesn’t corrode like metal, and its leak-free design helps conserve water. With a long lifespan and the ability to be recycled into new products, it reduces landfill waste and overall impact.
Call on Gajeske to help prevent costly, potentially dangerous problems down the line.
With more than 40 years of experience in polyethylene pipe, Gajeske delivers FM Approved HDPE water pipe for underground fire protection systems that ensure reliable performance when the heat is on.
