CorroPipe 'S'

Paint-like Pipeline Coating (Single-Component-Plus-Catalyst)

CorroPipe "S" is a Mix-and-Apply coating (Single-Component-Plus-Catalyst) that offers superior resistance to corrosion, chemicals, abrasion and cathodic disbondment. CorroPipe "S" is a versatile paint-like product designed for use as either an internal lining or external coating. It achieves initial cure in 30 to 90 minutes (depending on the user’s choice of three available catalysts) and is typically applied in three coats. The product is self-priming. Several color choices are available.

Typical Applications

High performance protection on projects where paint-like application method is important

  • Steel, concrete and ductile iron pipe; interior and exterior
  • Field joint applications, bell and spigot protection and fittings

Application Summary

CorroPipe "S" should be applied in a thin coat (less than 10 wet mils – 250 wet microns – under normal environmental conditions) to prevent foaming, sagging and pinholing. Multiple coats may be required to achieve the required thickness. Caution should be exercised if the humidity is great than 85%, however, these conditions can be overcome by heating the substrate to 80-100°F (27-40°C) prior to coating application, or reducing the film thickness per coat (less than seven mils, or 175 microns).

Available Variations

CorroPipe "S" (AM) is a modified version of this product that contains MicroSpear, an EPA-registered anti-microbial agent. While the coating itself is naturally resistant to bacterial attack, MicroSpear resists the growth of microbial colonization on the surface of the coating (a health concern in many applications) and minimizes the risk of MIC (Microbially Induced Corrosion).

CorroPipe "S" (CM) is a modified version of CorroPipe “S” that contains NanoShield, an additive consisting of microscopic spheres of real ceramic that enhance the abrasion and impact resistance of the finished product without detracting from other physical properties.

AM and CM can be specified together in your special version of CorroPipe “S” where service conditions require.
