As a gas utility guy I can say that 3-layer poly is not a common coating for most distribution applications. It is more likely to be used where the need for extremely high reliability(such as offshore) or resistance to abrasion(such pulling pipe through a bore) warrants the high cost. The extruded polyethylene(also sometimes called yellow jacket) coating is common and is much less expensive, although also less reliable. 3, record 10, English, - yellow%20jacket

Les dictionnaires techniques des termes pétroliers donnent le choix, pour le terme anglais «jacket», entre les équivalents français suivants : enveloppe, chemise, jaquette, manchon. «Chemise» a, dans le domaine technique, le sens de revêtement de protection (tout comme «enveloppe», ce dernier terme étant plus général). À partir de la description de l'objet donnée dans le contexte anglais, on comprend qu'il s'agit d'un «sheath», donc d'une enveloppe de protection. L'expression «enveloppe de protection extérieure» est attestée, d'où notre proposition (voir le contexte qui suit). Les termes «chemise jaune» et «enveloppe de protection extérieure jaune» (ou «enveloppe extérieure jaune», tout court) constituent à notre avis de bonnes solutions de traduction du terme anglais «yellow jacket». 2, record 10, French, - chemise%20jaune

L'idée de base [pour transporter des liquides sur de grandes distances] consiste à utiliser un tube de service entouré d'une isolation très performante, et d'une enveloppe de protection extérieure. Ceci permet au liquide qui passe dans le tube de service de conserver un état et une température constante. [...] Le tube de service peut être constitué de plusieurs matériaux, tandis que l'enveloppe extérieure est normalement en polyéthylène extrudé, en acier ou acier galvanisé. 3, record 10, French, - chemise%20jaune

Drip Irrigation.... Water is delivered in small quantities under low pressure directly to... the root zone of the plants. You’ll need 1/2 inch polyethylene header pipe, and a roll of thin tape-like porous tubing. The header pipe connects to a garden hose and routes water through the garden. The pipe is placed either down the center or along one end of the garden. Small puncture holes are then made with a screwdriver into the header pipe at intervals corresponding to garden row. Eight-to ten-inch pieces of rubber connecting hose are then inserted into these holes. The other end of the connecting hose attaches to a length of porous tape. This tape is rolled out along each vegetable bed and cut to the same length as the row. Then end of the tape is then crimped to prevent water loss when the system is in use. Porous irrigation tape is best placed about three to four inches away from the base of the plants. 1, record 11, English, - porous%20irrigation%20tape
