PIN FR thermoplastic piping system

GF Piping Systems non-halogen pipe jacket solution for fire-protection of lightweight, corrosion-free maritime applications. The HEAT-FIT pipe jacket system uses non-halogenated, intumescent flame retardants to achieve strict IMO (International Marine Organisation) fire endurance standards, including resisting c. 1000°C for 30 minutes under pressure, flame spread and surface flammability, smoke and toxicity to IMO A653 2010 FTP Code Part 5 and Part 2. They can be used with ecoFIT (PE100) pipes and fittings in essential applications (L3) including ballast water, fresh- and seawater cooling, exhaust gas scrubbers in shipping, offshore platforms, floating wind farms. The material is water based, does not contain hazardous chemicals and is Hong Kong Convention Green Ship Passport compliant. The jacket uses glass fibre and intumescent coating, exterior protected by TPU to resist harsh marine conditions. Pipes can be joined and sealed onboard with butt fusion or electrofusion, without special skills and with full traceability.
