LambentPyro Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 (edited) Does one know where the cheapest place to obtain DR17 HDPE pipe that can be cut to length and shipped without having to buy in bulk? Mortar Rack is pretty expensive, they want nearly $60 for just 6 mortars and some plugs I was also going to get.

mikeee Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Check with a plumbing wholesaler, irrigation contractor or well driller. The larger sized piping is used by industrials and municipalities. Most of the contractors that install the big stuff are the excavating companies with the equipment to install the piping in the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddewees Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Depends on where you live, but ISCO should be somewhere nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maserface Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Lambent, I have both fiberglass and hdpe, I personally love fiberglass, but i don't think it's as good for mass reloading but it's light and they look good . What sizes are you looking for, and in racks or not ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eb11 Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 lambent I live in maine I don't think they would ship it all over the country. just call around someone in your area must sell some if they don't they will know someone who does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncrichie Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Depending on how much you wanta buy the closest ISCO to you (depending on where in NJ you are) would be Horseheads NY. Which is in the vicinity of Elmira NY. If your getting alot it may be cheaper to drive there and trailer some back rather than deal with shipping?

Blambert Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 I have found local suppliers but have not found one to save any money You can try Addy Racks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 My experience from across the pond is that the plug costs money so what looks like cheap pipe isn'r cheap when it's properly plugged. So I bought some paper mortars and some GRP mortars all ready plugged. The advantage with (HD)PE tubes is their gentle mode of failure, so just occasionally I test something out of a HDPE tube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
