Bondstrand Glassfiber Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) pipe systems for Industrial applications
The many advantages of Bondstrand® Glassfiber Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) pipe systems.
Durable and corrosion resistant Bondstrand® Glassfiber Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) piping is inert to internal corrosion from water, salt water, industrial waste water, chemicals, residues and bacteria. Similarly it resists exterior corrosion even in aggressive environments. Cathodic protection is not required.
Lightweight and easy to install GRE pipe systems, being just a quarter to an eighth the weight of comparable steel pipe, are easy to install without the need of heavy equipment.
Reduced costs The installation cost of Glassfiber Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) pipe systems are typically 80% of the costs of carbon steel. The corrosion resistance and esistance to UV light reduce the maintenance costs for both aboveground and buried pipelines. The smooth internal surface reduces the head loss resulting in lower pump energy consumption.
Wide range of piping systems NOV Fiber Glass Systems offers complete piping systems in a variety of diameters and pressures for many different application areas are available in diameters up to 1000 mm (40 inch), pressures classes up to 245 bar (3500 PSI) and standard lengths up to 12 m (40-feet). Including a choice of joint systems.
Longer life Bondstrand longevity reduces, or eliminates loss of service or costly shutdown.
No contamination Bondstrand does not produce rust or scale which could foul steam traps, valves and other components.
Low thermal conductivity The thermal conductivity of Glassfiber Reinforced Epoxy (GRE) is approximately 1% of the thermal conductivity value of steel. This means Bondstrand helps you save on your energy costs.
