Pipeclad™ Frac-Shun ERC

This novel and innovative erosion-resistant coating system extends the service life of fracking piping, decreasing maintenance costs and enhancing well productivity and safety

Pipeclad Frac-Shun ERC stands at the forefront of pipeline protection during energy extraction, addressing a critical industry challenge – the rapid erosion of inner pipe surfaces within 6-18 months. This erosive phenomenon not only leads to leaks but forces unplanned shutdowns, demanding costly pipe replacements.

Enter Pipeclad Frac-Shun ERC, a groundbreaking erosion-resistant coating system designed to be a fortress against the erosive forces experienced during the extraction phase of oil and gas operations. This system doesn’t just protect; it transforms the narrative of pipeline longevity. With the potential to double the asset life expectancy before replacement is necessary, Pipeclad Frac-Shun ERC gives unparalleled value to customers, reshaping industry expectations and redefining the standard for pipeline coatings. By extending service life and minimizing steel loss, this system significantly reduces downtime and maintenance costs.
