“The StrengThin system can significantly cut piping installation time for an entire high-pressure piping system, lower costs and reduce project risk during the construction of desalination facilities,” said Stephen Morrison, market director of a Global Water Systems Technology.
Offered in a range of sizes from two-inches to 16 inches, the system is rated up to 8,200kPA (1,200psi) with a minimum safety factor of three to one.
In addition the Victaulic StrengThin Piping System includes a full range of couplings, fittings, valves and a pipe preparation tool. The couplings are available as rigid or flexible.
All couplings feature an anti-biofouling Grade “EW” gasket. The gasket is designed using a Victaulic-engineered compound that does not contribute to microbiological growth.
