By using this highly reliable alternative to flange insulation systems, effective management of cathodic protection is possible.
Another advantage is that it provides protection against stray currents near buildings, ensures insulation of cathodic protection, and prevents cathodic protection or stray currents from causing increased corrosion.
The monolithic insulated pipe joints are designed for use at very high pressures—up to 20,000 psi. Upon request, we can supply monolithic insulated pipe joints according to your specifications. Features
