Wear Ability
How long Trimay® wear pipe will last depends on what is being transported as well as factors such as design of the line. Bends and transition points are high-wear areas, thus cladding thickness is usually applied thicker, or a higher-grade or better type of overlay is selected for the bend areas. Hydrotransportation of abrasive materials such as silicas will erode quicker than slurries with low concentrations. High flow, turbulent environments will further accelerate erosion. Many factors contribute to the deterioration of lines, however the field results contained in Trimay`s growing collection of pipe case studies may help to provide you with a reliable benchmark for your application.
