Protects the corrosion coating on pipelines from rocky backfill.
Description
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III is a flexible padding designed especially for the protection of the corrosion coating on pipelines when rocky backfill is encountered.
Advantages
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III provides the padding required for pipe coatings without the concern of blocking out cathodic protection.
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III has a flat interior surface that will not mar soft coatings.
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III saves money at every step of the operation through its convenience and ease of application.
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III’s flexibility, even at colder temperatures, allows for quick and easy application lengthwise or cigarette wrap using tape or strapping products.
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III helps protect the coating from the abrasive movement of the pipe in the ground over long periods.
Availability
PIPE-GUARD Rock Shield III is readily available. It is supplied in a standard roll size of 5’ wide x 100’ roll long weighing 77 lbs.
Benefits
Absorbs impact of uneven backfill
Protects pipe coating from jagged rocks in trench.
Helps prevent abrasions from pipe movement underground.
Protects pipe from future excavations.
Material is lightweight and easy to handle.
