Pipeline RockShields
After a pipeline is buried and commissioned its life begins. But critical protective steps prior to backfill can mean the difference between ongoing health and failures in the field. A critical step in assuring long-term integrity of underground structures is the assurance of protection against rough handling and rock damage during back filling. Tuff-N- Nuff takes the guesswork out of the back-fill process.
Uses & Applications for Tuff N Nuff
- Maintains cathodic protection
- Absorbs impact of uneven back fill.
- Flexible to accommodate normal pipe movement resulting from ground shifting, thermal expansion or contraction, while minimizing abrasion
- Does not trap or hold water
- Allows accurate cathodic testing and inspection
- Protects pipe coating from protruding rocks in trench
- Protects pipe during future excavations.
- Is unaffected by temperature extremes and wet weather.
- Maintains cathodic protection.
- Lightweight. Easy to handle and transport.
- Yellow color helps identify in-ground pipe to third parties.
