STOPAQ is ideally suited for a diverse range of pipeline application such as: transition areas from above to below ground pipelines; special parts such as bends, tees, flanges etc.; rehabilitation of existing pipelines. The STOPAQ systems always consist of minimally two layers:

1. Corrosion Prevention
2. Mechanical Protection

The mechanical protection layer provides supplementary soil stress resistance. Improved soil stress resistance is achieved with the application of an Outerwrap layer, the type of Outerwrap layer to be used depends on a number of factors including: pipeline operating temperature, expected axial pipeline movement, expected circumferential forces, expected soil stress forces
Depending on the above expected situations the best suitable mechanical protection products to complement your corrosion prevention system include:

• STOPAQ Outerwrap PVC
• STOPAQ Outerwrap PE
• STOPAQ Outerglass Shield
