U-BOLT-COTE
Corrosion occurs due to metal contact between the uncoated u-bolts
and pipe. The excessive corrosion and pitting can eventually develop
into pinhole leaks. This interaction can be completely eliminated
by utilizing an APS Pipe Support Pad and APS U-Bolt-Cote.
(As shown to the left.) U-Bolt-Cote is excellent for use on plastic,
FRP or glass-lined pipe for shock absorption.
U-Bolt-Cote
provides corrosion resistance and cathodic protection. All sizes
available. Galvanized long tangent u-bolts ranging in sizes through
20" are stock items. Larger sizes and other types of coating
such as zinc, cadmium, stainless, Xylan (PTFE)
are also available. Standard
APS pipe support pads are die cut out of Buna-N rubber. Pre-drilled
thermoplastic rods (either round or half-round) can be provided.
DESCRIPTION
The U-Bolt-Cote is a seamless, vulcanized, polyolefin material
that can be applied to all types of U-Bolts. It is excellent for
eliminating corrosion problems on piping in refineries, chemical
plants, paper mills, offshore platforms, rigs and the shipping industry.
The U-Bolt-Cote will also help to reduce vibration and noise
levels.
ADVANTAGES
-
VERSATILITY - With a wide variety of sizes available, U-Bolt-Cote
can be applied to all makes and sizes of U-Bolts.
-
PROTECTION - A rugged and durable covering, eliminating
metal to metal contact.
-
RELIABILITY - U-Bolt-Cote provides high abrasive and corrosive
resistance in a continuous sheath, eliminating fraying and
unraveling. Virtually unaffected by heat, ultra violet rays,
vibration, electrolysis, sandblasting or any other rigors
conducive to an industrial and marine environment.
-
EASE OF INSTALLATION - The U-Bolt size has been considered
to accommodate the coating thickness assuring a good fit
over the pipe.
