Tel. +33 (0) 3 66 74 00 89
About the solution
Description
High-performance cast iron pipes designed to withstand external stresses due to climate exposures (ultraviolet radiation, saline mist, condensation, freezing-thawing cycles and pollution).
Recommended use
The Zn range cast iron drainage system is recommended for applications in coastal areas, directly or indirectly exposed to climatic stresses and/or polluted atmospheres, polluted or confined atmospheres such as cellars, crawl spaces or those which may be exposed to external aggressions during manufacturing processes and condensation.
Dimensions
- Diameter: 50 to 400 mm (up to 600 mm on request).
- Length: 3000 mm.

- Length: 3000 mm.
MAJOR BENEFITS
- Compliant with standard EN 877.
- Performance guaranteed with marks delivered by a third party (NF, Watermark).
- Resistance to climatic stresses thanks to the zinc coating, withstanding extended exposure to ultraviolet light or wide temperature variations.
- High level of fire safety with excellent A2, s1-d0 reaction to fire and fire resistance up to 240 minutes depending on the configuration (generally requires no special fire protection, saving time and costs).
- Best acoustic comfort with Lsc,A < 10 dB (A) according to EN 14366.
- Ease of installation due to mechanical couplings assembled with simple tools.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
What is the chemical resistance of Agilium® Zn pipes?
Agilium® Zn (Watermark®) is designed for all common building discharges, covering a pH range from 2 to 12.
What is the maximum operating temperature?
According to EN 877, Zn pipes can handle hot discharges up to 95 °C.
What is the expansion rate of the pipe?
The thermal expansion coefficient is 0.0104 mm/(m·°C), 7 times lower than PVC and 19 times lower than HDPE. This close match with concrete and steel ensures structural compatibility.
What is the difference between S range & Agilium® Zn pipes?
Both have a 130 μm epoxy internal coating. Agilium® Zn also has a zinc external coating (260 g/m²), providing added protection against aggressive environments such as coastal areas.
