Product Description
A key offering within the GTS-PP product
family, GTS-PP II uses ShawCor's unique, and
patented, cross-linked polypropylene outer
layer, along with a proprietary rapid-activation
polypropylene copolymer adhesive and
advanced liquid epoxy layer to deliver
protection that far exceeds minimum industry
standards, such as ISO, while offering
significant installation advantages over the
highest performing PP systems, that require
higher installation temperatures.
Features & Benefits
Lower Temperature 3LPP Coating
Technology
GTS-PP II provides 3LPP protection with the
following components:
!
!
!
Polypropylene Top Coat offering the
hardness, mechanical protection and
resistance to moisture absorption typically
required for pipelines utilizing polypropylene coatings
High Temperature Epoxy on the Steel
providing proven resistance to corrosion
and to cathodic disbondment while allowing
for relatively low installation temperatures
when compared to other systems.
Rapid-Activation PP Copolymer
Adhesive bonding the polypropylene top
coat to the epoxy layer and fusing to the
3LPP factory-applied coating where the
joint coating overlaps with the lowest
possible installation temperatures.
Fuses with the Lowest Installation
Temperatures
GTS-PP II fuses to the 3LPP factory-applied
coating while requiring the lowest installation
temperatures in the industry. The system can be
installed directly and very efficiently by pipeline
contractors in an efficient and controlled
manner, using uniform induction heating
technology. GTS-PP II is also available in
elevated thickness and with engineered
features, such as the Patented Reduced Edge
Thickness Design, which promotes a completely
uniform and fused system and which further
minimizes installation time by reducing
unneeded extra coating thickness at the overlap
area.
Available with Full Automation
This advanced coating technology is also fully
compatible with Canusa-CPS' patented
innovation, the IntelliCOAT system, which
automates the installation of heat shrinkable
pre-extruded coating systems, such as GTS-PP
II. When combined, these technologies deliver
consistent in-field application and full repeatability with improved safety and can even offer
significant productivity and cycle time improvements.
Patented Technology
GTS-PP II's cross-linked PP technology and
Reduced Edge Thickness Design are patented in
North America and throughout Europe and the
rest of the world.
