FBE
Fusion Bonded Epoxy Coating
Fusion Bonded Epoxy (FBE) is a thermosetting powder applied
anti-corrosion coating that provides excellent protection for
small to large diameter pipelines at up to moderate operating
temperatures. Special grades of FBE are also available for higher
operating temperatures, high strength steel pipes, or other
specific applications.
Long Term Corrosion Protection
FBE has excellent adhesion to steel and provides superior
long term corrosion resistance and protection of pipelines
operating at moderate temperatures for the designed life
Superior adhesion properties provide excellent resistance
to cathodic disbondment which reduces the total cost of
cathodic protection during the operation of the pipeline
Special grades of FBE are available for use at higher
operating temperatures, for coating of high strength steels and other specific applications
Good Mechanical And Chemical Resistance
FBE can be applied as a dual-layer product which provides tough physical properties that minimize damage during handling,
transportation, installation and operation
FBE has been designed for good chemical resistance under most soil conditions
Improved Handling Characteristics
FBE is flexible and allows bending of the pipe for installation.
Global Availability
Can be manufactured in a single plant or in multiple plant locations to improve project logistics.
