3LPE Raw Materials For Steel Pipe

3LPE Raw Materials include epoxy inside, adhesive layer middle, and outside with polyethylene layer. 3LPE will be only used for pipe external 3LPE coating.

When people purchase steel pipe for pipeline systems, always we see the pipe has been asked for 3LPE coating.So how much do you know about 3LPE coating and 3LPE coating raw materials? And in which cases it shall be used? How much of the cost of the 3LPE coating raw materials? Let’s talk about it.

Application Of 3LPE Raw Materials

3LPE Raw materials are widely used in pipeline systems for the transmission of oil, gas, water and other fluids, especially for buried steel pipes, it has important anti-corrosion significance. They have highly resistance to corrosive from harmful environment, moisture and chemicals etc.

What Kind Of Pipes Could Be Coated with 3LPE Raw Material

Almost all kind of steel pipes could be coated with 3LPE raw material. such as

Stainless steel pipe

ASTM A312, ASTM A269 stainless pipe

Carbon steel pipe

API 5L line pipe from Grade B to Grade 80

ASTM A53 pipe (Hot dipped galvanized steel pipe)

ASTM A106 pipe

ASTM A252 pipe

ASTM A134 and A135

ASTM A333

Alloy steel pipe

ASTM A335

Nickel Alloy pipes

CRA clad or lined pipe

Pipes Coated With 3LPE Raw Material

3LPE Raw Material inlcudes 3 layer coatings, first FBE coating, middle is adhesive layer, outside polyethylene layer. 3LPE coating pipe is another new product developed on the FBE coating basis since 1980s, which contains adhesives and PE(polyethylene) layers. 3LPE can strengthen the pipeline’s mechanical properties, high electrical resistance, waterproof, wearable, anti-aging.

It could protect pipe from the heat loss which only account for 1/4 of pipe.
