Durability
FarmBoss pipe is manufactured from polypropylene, which has excellent proven resistance to impact, chemical attack and abrasion. FarmBoss is UV resistant so it will not become brittle.
Transportation & Handling
Although incredibly strong, FarmBoss is also incredibly light. A long section of FarmBoss pipe can easily be carried by two men, which means significant savings—in time, labour, machinery—and therefore costs. Transportation is easy too, for example FarmBoss can even be transported on utility vehicles using roof racks.
Jointing
Installation is fast and easy with FarmBoss. FarmBoss is easily and quickly cut on-site to lengths to suit the needs of the job - no fuss, no hold-ups, no hassles.
Fittings
The FarmBoss system is all about ease-of-use. FarmBoss comes with integral collars, but if you need couplers, these are available (refer to Table 2 for details!.
Hydraulic Performance
The smart design of FarmBoss incorporates a supersmooth inner wall lining, which results in excellent flow characteristics.
