Vinyl ester resin wear pads.

Also known as non metallic wear pads these products are used as corrosion protection for uninsulated piping systems and extend the life of the pipe. However the wear pad remained intact. Manufacturer identification manufacturer s name. Made from fiberglass reinforced vinyl ester and epoxy resins tri wear wear pads provide a non conductive surface that has from 35 000 to 45 000 psi compressive strength and operating temperatures from 60 f to 400 f.

Tri wear wear pads eliminate metal to metal contact and corrosion. The composite cradle is banded to the piping assembly at the support locations using stainless steel bands. In terms of physical properties and cost vinylester resin is a compromise between low cost polyesters and epoxy resins. Vinyl ester resin our vinyl ester resin is a 100 vinyl ester resin in styrene which is used primarily in the production of fiberglass reinforced parts that require corrosion resistance or blister resistance from water.

Made from frp fiberglass reinforced plastic vinyl ester and epoxy resins tri wear wear pads provide a non conductive surface that has from 35 000 to 45 000 psi compressive strength and operating temperatures from 60 f to 500 f. This resin is extremely chemical resistant when cured. Vinylester resin is superior in every property as compared to all polyester resins. Similar in strength to epoxies with much increased stiffness.

Its use is limited to the construction of high performance power boats where vinylesters increased bond strength has helped eliminate bonding problems with core materials vinylester resin is also used as a great water barrier when mixed properly with glass. They also eliminate metal to metal contact and electrically isolate the piping from the pipe rack and other metal structural elements. The wear pads act as insulators and prevent surface induced corrosion by keeping out moisture preventing electrical current conduction and providing superior chemical resistance. They asked us to perform a compressive test to prove that it could handle 26 000 pounds.

H f r p product code. Fiber reinforced vinyl ester resin is formed to the exact dimensions of the insulation system. Made from fiberglass reinforced vinyl ester or epoxy resins tri wear wear pads provide a non conductive surface that pro. We tested our standard inch thick 30 degree coverage 12 inch long wear pad on a 10 inch diameter 1 inch thick pipe.

App s aerotek cradle is a cost effective way to protect pipe insulation from support point abrasion in hot or cold services. We had to stop the test at 54 000 pounds when the massive pipe began to ovalize.
