Questions and answers

Where are insulated pipes used?
  • In heating systems.
  • In industrial and residential pipelines.
  • In hot and cold water supply systems.
What is the difference between PE and SPIRO shell?
  • PE (polyethylene) sheath – a plastic sheath resistant to mechanical stress and corrosion. It does not withstand ultraviolet radiation, therefore it is used for underground laying.
  • SPIRO (spiral-wound steel) casing – a metal casing made of corrosion-resistant galvanized or stainless steel. Designed for above-ground pipelines.
What materials are used for thermal insulation of pipes?

The main material is polyurethane foam (PU), which has low thermal conductivity and high thermal resistance. The thermal conductivity coefficient of polyurethane foam is one of the lowest and is 0.027 W/(m*K))

How is pre-insulated pipes installed?

Installation is carried out by welding steel pipes and sealing the joints using polyethylene, heat-shrink or metal couplings.

What is sandwich pipe insulation used for?

This type of pipe insulation is used for pipeline systems in which the coolant temperature exceeds 140 0 C. Basalt wool protects against high temperatures, and then a layer of polyurethane foam acts as effective thermal insulation.

What are enameled pipes and what are their advantages?

Enameled pipes are steel pipes coated with a special glass-ceramic layer (enamel). They combine the strength of metal with the chemical resistance of glass.

Where are enameled pipes used?
  • In cold and hot water supply and drainage systems.
  • In thermal power engineering for transporting hot water, steam, gases, as well as in heat recovery systems and heat exchangers.
  • Oil and gas extraction and transportation.
  • In the chemical and petrochemical industries.
  • In the food industry (production of sugar, oil, dairy products, etc.).
What is the durability of the enamel coating?
  • In cold and hot water supply and drainage systems.
  • In thermal power engineering for transporting hot water, steam, gases, as well as in heat recovery systems and heat exchangers.
  • Oil and gas extraction and transportation.
  • In the chemical and petrochemical industries.
  • In the food industry (production of sugar, oil, dairy products, etc.).
What diameter of enameled pipes do you produce?

Our company produces enameled pipes with diameters from DN25 to DN300mm and lengths up to 12m.

We also have the ability to apply enamel coating to non-standard products with a diameter of up to 650mm.

How is the installation of pipes with an internal glass-enamel coating performed?

Installation of pipes with an internal enamel coating is performed using electric arc welding or another type of welding. To protect the welded joint, a special paste is applied to the inner surface of the pipe, which melts during welding and covers the weld seam from the inside.

Why is tubing enameled?

To protect against corrosion, reduce friction and extend service life in aggressive oil and gas production conditions.

What are the advantages of enameled tubing compared to conventional tubing?
  • Higher corrosion resistance.
  • Less paraffin and salt deposits.
  • Increased service life.
  • Increasing well throughput by reducing downtime and increasing well cleaning intervals.
What is the maximum operating temperature of enameled tubing?

Up to 400°C, depending on the type of enamel.

Why is bitumen-polymer coating needed?

Bitumen-polymer coating protects pipes from corrosion, mechanical damage, exposure to groundwater and atmospheric corrosion.

What are the advantages of protecting pipes with bitumen-polymer insulation?
  • High adhesion to metal.
  • Waterproof.
  • Durability (up to 50 years of operation).
  • Protection against mechanical damage.
Under what operating conditions is bitumen-polymer insulation most effective?
  • When laying pipes underground.
  • In conditions of high humidity and aggressive environments.
