Negative Buoyancy and Mechanical Protection
HeviCote® can be applied in a wide range of densities and thicknesses to meet project requirements. This feature can improve installation, optimize negative buoyancy and mechanical protection while minimizing cost. The product is available in thicknesses up to 230 mm (9”) providing a high level of mechanical protection and stability.

Value Added Options
The standard HeviCote® system can be enhanced further with additional features including bendability slots, crack inducers, buckle arrestors and sacrificial anodes. Depending on design requirements, HeviCote® can be manufactured with a reinforcing wire cage or galvanized reinforcing wire mesh.

Excellent Compatibility
HeviCote® can be applied over anti corrosion and insulation coating systems. This enables project teams to choose the most appropriate weight and protection coating system without compromising the long term corrosion protection of the pipeline.
