“OM” Lateral pipes are produced from 100% leaner law density polyethylene vergin materail. It also posses/ the compare standard mark as per IS 12786. “OM”.
LLDPE tubings (pipes) are used as micro irrigation laterals on which sprayers, drippers or immiters are mounted directly or by means of fittings. “OM” LLDPE tubings are available in all sizes i.e. 12mm., 16mm., 20mm., 25mm., & 32mm.
“OM” LLDPE tubings are classified by pressure rating (working pressure) at 27’C as per IS- 12786
