Anti-static Pigging

iNPIPE PRODUCTS™ offers a full range of pipeline pigs with anti-static properties to minimise or eliminate static build up

Categories: ,

Description

Anti-static additives are added to iNPIPE PRODUCTS™ Polylast polyurethanes in order to reduce or eliminate a static build up. The anti-static additives work by lowering resistivity. Harnessing this unique functionality, it is possible to neutralise the surrounding static field in order to effectively prevent electrostatic discharge [ESD].

iNPIPE PRODUCTS™ anti-static materials are available in a full range of hardness’ from Shore A 60 to 95 with high tensile and tear strength, together with high abrasion resistance.
