ASTM D3035 PE Pipe Dimensions

Dimension Ratio (DR) Explained

The Dimension Ratio (DR) is a fundamental parameter for PE pipes defined as:

$DR = \frac{D_{outside}}{t_{min}}$

Where:

• $D_{outside}$ = Average outside diameter (in)
• $t_{min}$ = Minimum wall thickness (in)

A lower DR number indicates a thicker pipe wall and higher pressure rating. Standard DR values for PE pipes include *DR 7, DR 9, DR 9.3, DR 11, DR 13.5, DR 15, DR 17, DR 21, DR 26, and DR 32.5.
