In modern agriculture, the efficiency and durability of irrigation systems depend heavily on the materials used. Polyethylene (PE) pipes are the backbone of pressurized irrigation networks, and two grades dominate the market: PE100 and PE80.
At TTG Corporation (Tavakoli Trading Group), we specialize in supplying certified PE compounds tailored for agricultural infrastructure. In this article, we’ll explore the key differences between PE100 and PE80, their applications, and how to choose the right grade for your pipe irrigation project.

What’s the Difference Between PE100 and PE80?
What’s the Difference Between PE100 and PE80?
▪️ Strength
PE100: Higher pressure resistance
PE80: Moderate pressure resistance
▪️ Wall Thickness
PE100: Thinner (same pressure rating)
PE80: Thicker
▪️ Lifespan
PE100: Longer service life
PE80: Shorter lifespan
▪️ Cost
PE100: Higher upfront cost
PE80: More budget-friendly
▪️ Applications
PE100: High-performance systems
PE80: Standard irrigation setups
PE100 is ideal for large-scale, high-pressure pipe irrigation systems where long-term reliability is critical. PE80, on the other hand, is a cost-effective Polyethylene solution for moderate pressure environments, such as small farms or greenhouses.
