Abstract: Plastic is now the number one material of choice for the construction of fuel gas distribution systems. The use of plastic by the gas utilities had increased slowly but steadily for more than a decade so that by 1976 plastic piping accounted for about S2 percent of the footage of all services and mains instaUed in that year. In 1977, the penetration of plastic into this application increased dramatically, jumping to 72 percent of the total footage installed. There are now more than 100,000 miles of plastic pipe buried and in service in the U.S. today, and the amount is expeaed to increase substantially every year.
