Insul-8® Systems are moulded and/or spray applied polyurethane foam coatings developed for external protection of buried or above ground steel and plastic pipe. The polyurethane foam provides a cost-effective alternative for preventing hydrate formation in gas pipelines, maintaining viscosity of hot oil lines and providing freeze protection for water and sewage lines.

Provides a Water Tight Barrier

Prevents Hydrate Formation in Gas Lines

• Insul-8® polyurethane foam reduces heat loss to prevent hydrate formation in gas pipelines and helps to maintain viscosity in hot oil lines.

Available with a Variety of Anti-Corrosion Undercoat Systems

• Can be used with a variety of anti-corrosion coatings and is available in a variety of insulation thicknesses to meet specific project requirements.

Protection of Water and Sewage Lines from Freezing

• An optional design for further protection against temperature loss is the application of heat tracing channels.

High Operating Temperature Capabilities

• For use where high operating temperatures are attained, and high shear strength bond is required. Insul-8® is available in a range of maximum operating temperatures.

Global Availability

• High capacity within the Bredero Shaw plant network allows the client to benefit from single source advantages, providing more cost effective management of pipe coating needs.
