Advanced Protection for Steel Pipes: Lining and Coating Solutions

BCS Steel Pipe offers a wide range of internal and external coating solutions for steel pipes  designed to protect against corrosion, mechanical damage, and other environmental factors. While steel is a durable and long-lasting material, the lifespan of uncoated steel can significantly decrease—from 50 years to just 10-15 years—if the coating process is not meticulously applied, free from air bubbles, and properly executed. To combat this, we provide advanced coating options to ensure the longevity and reliability of our pipes.

 

Our External Coating options include 3LPE/3LPP, a multilayer system consisting of a high-performance anticorrosion fusion-bonded epoxy (FBE) as the first layer, followed by a copolymer PE/PP adhesive layer for enhanced adhesion, and a final outer layer of polyethylene/polypropylene for mechanical protection. For Internal/External Coating, we also use epoxy paints, which are highly effective in protecting both the inside and outside surfaces of pipes from corrosion. This type of coating is commonly used in applications like potable water, wastewater, petroleum, and gas pipelines, ensuring durability and long-term performance across a wide variety of industries.
