Features & Benefits

Long Term Corrosion Protection

• FBE’s excellent adhesion to steel 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.

Engineered Solutions

• Advanced manufacturing techniques allow FBE to be customized to your specific project.
• Can be applied to various pipe diameters from 90 mm (3.5”) to over 1220 mm (48”).
• Can be applied in a wide range of thicknesses to cost effectively meet unique project specifications and performance requirements.

Good Mechanical and Chemical Protection

• 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.
