Project Details
Engineers wanted to protect their buried pipework from corrosion before placing the pipework in the ground and asked K-Cotech Co. Ltd for a long-term and cost-effective corrosion prevention solution.
K-Cotech recommended a system from Winn & Coales (Denso) Ltd. The pipe surface was first primed with Denso Primer D™, followed by a wrap of Densoclad 40HT™ to complete the application. With this simple application procedure, application was completed in just two days. The engineers were satisfied with the time-saving application and outstanding performance.
