Often we describe it as an ARO on steroids, where it combines both the traditional handling and damage resistant properties of an ARO with moisture resistance that gives it some very high performing qualities. For engineering and construction firms, they no longer have to have crews in place to wrap polymeric protection systems on the pipes because now you can use nonselective backfill. GFX: John Garden – Global coatings consultant Speaker 2 [00:00:52] From an applicator standpoint, I would definitely recommend Pipeclad 2060 to end users. Quality seems to be very consistent. Bag for bag, sprays well and reclaim amounts are generally low. We're not seeing impact fusion in our pumps in the guns, film thickness builds well. GFX: Tim Morrow – Director of operations, Stupp coatings LLC Speaker 3 [00:01:08] Pipeclad 2060 -- really impressed with the way we can apply it. GFX: Rick jones – vice president, stupp coatings Speaker 4 [00:01:14] Instead of applying 14 mils with 40 mils or whatever it may be, you're able to apply to very thin coatings at which you can run the line speeds within our facility at about the same speed, so it offers a savings to the customer. (Pipeline sections being buried) Speaker 2 [00:01:40] Pipeclad 2060 testing wise, CDTs, the water soaks, the bends, all that's top notch. GFX: Steve Nelson – vice president of major projects, whitewater Speaker 4 [00:01:47] I would certainly recommend Pipeclad 2060. We felt it performed from a protection standpoint above and beyond what it advertised, and it stood up to every expectation I had. The confidence in Sherwin-Williams would be the brand name. There's been occurrence after occurrence of successes there. GFX: Dan O’leary – chairman and ceo (retired), Edgen Murray Speaker 5 [00:02:10] We have to have suppliers such as Sherwin-Williams that are reliable, that have good brands that have unquestioned quality because that's what our customers need.

  GFX: Sherwin-Williams – from spec to protect GFX: Pipeclad® 2060 Moisture resistant overcoat – advanced damage and moisture resistance for pipeline. GFX: Reduce holidays and damage GFX: Accelerate application throughput GFX: Reduced installation and backfilling costs GFX: Protection against steam jacking GFX: Increased long-term protection Whitewater, an Austin, Texas based midstream company specializing in large infrastructure projects, wanted to find a better way to protect fusion bonded epoxy pipeline coatings from becoming damaged. Traditionally during backfilling pipe is often wrapped in a polymeric protective wrap. This wrap adds cost, additional labor, extra inspection, and slows down installation. Whitewater partnered with Sherwin-Williams and Stupp Coatings, a Pipeline coatings applicator in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to find a better approach to eliminating polymeric protective wraps and use more native backfill to ultimately drive down project costs. This partnership led Pipeclad 2060 moisture resistant overcoat to be applied to 120 miles of spiral welp pipe on the Whistler Pipeline in Texas. Before beginning the project, Stupp Coatings conducted extensive damage testing, including impact and cold flexibility testing to ensure the coating would meet damage resistance requirements. Pipeclad 2060 was applied at the same time as the FBE layer adding no additional time to the project. After coating Stupp Coatings observed a dramatic reduction in post application holidays, particularly around weld seams on the spiral welded pipe. After installation was completed, direct current voltage gradient inspections demonstrated that Pipeclad 2060 performed at the same level as pipes using polymeric protective wraps.

WhiteWater, a midstream oil & gas company, was looking for optimal, long-term protection on the Whistler Pipeline project in Texas. Learn why Pipeclad 2060 Moisture Resistant Overcoat from Sherwin-Williams was the perfect solution for 120 miles of spiral-weld steel pipe.
