Admittedly, in most piping systems on board, good corrosion protective paints are a fine way to go. In polluted waters with a high sediment content, however, things may quickly look different: Degradation problems start in the pipe bends and continue over time through the flanges into the pipe itself.
On LNG tankers where the ballast water system may have to be used as a safety system for cargo cooling - "more" is required. There, longer service life, impact resistance and a flange-to-flange corrosion protection are an extremely important safety plus. A case for our sprayable MetaLine elastomers – more resistant than rubber linings and more cost-effective too!
