What is Fusion Bonded Epoxy Piling Coating
Fusion bonded epoxy coating protects underground steel pipes and reinforcement from corrosion. It operates effectively between -100°F and 230°F, depending on grade and conditions. As an eco-friendly, organic material, it aligns with green business practices, making it a popular, sustainable choice.
Advancements in Coating Technology Lead to Additional Applications
Fusion bonded epoxy coating is a top choice for pipelines due to its durability, corrosion resistance, and easy application. Since the 1970s, it has been used on girth welds, with millions coated. In the 1980s, it was applied to induction bends, flanges, valves, and fittings, providing high-quality protection. Advances in application techniques have enabled efficient, cost-effective corrosion protection for pipeline weld areas.
Wide Range of Uses
Fusion bond epoxy coating has been used for nearly 50 years to protect against corrosion, especially in water and salt-water applications. It is certified for potable water and food handling but is not recommended for sewer environments.
