Why Plastics?

Where metals reach their limits for chemical resistance, maintenance, or economic reasons, plastics should be your first choice.  Plastics are lightweight, elastic, corrosion-resistant, and above all, maintenance free.

Choices of Construction

     

 

 

FRP with thin liner for watery liquids and low aggressive chemicals

FRP with chemical barrier liner for medium aggressive chemicals

FRP with thermoplastic liner for strong aggressive chemicals, chlorinated hydrocarbons, etc.

     

Liner Selection

  • PVC (max 175 deg F)

  • PP (max 210 deg F)

  • PVDF (max 250 deg F)

  • E-CTFE (max 265 deg F)

Liners are welded by certified thermoplastic welders and are bonded to the FRP.  Products can be used from -40 deg F up to 300 deg F and with special resins up to 450 deg F.
 

Pipe, tanks, and process vessels can be provided with a nonwoven or C-glass veil and a resin rich topcoat or pigmented gel coat.  This exterior coating provides up to a 15 year protection against weathering and mild chemical attack.
 

Process Piping Systems

Pipe is available with filament would or hand layup structural walls.  All FRP process piping has a pure resin, reinforced FRP, or thermoplastic liner and can range in size from 1 inch in diameter to 24 feet in diameter.  The full offering of liners guarantees not only optimal chemical resistance, but also resistance against erosion and solids build-up.

The internal surface finish provides a smooth surface with less resistance to flow than conventional materials.

Systems are complete with:

  • Flanges according to ANSI or DIN

  • Bends of 0 degrees to 180 degrees

  • Reducers (eccentric, concentric, or custom)

  • Tees

  • Laterals

  • Crosses

  • Couplings

  • Adapters

  • Custom Configurations

Products and Services

  • Storage and process tanks for both above and below applications

  • Salt saturators

  • Air treatment and microchip industry vessels

  • Piping and ducting systems

  • Stacks

  • Rectangular containers

  • Covers

  • Installation and assembly

  • Dual containment pipe
