Coating & lining

Depending on the intended application and customer requirements, our pipe bends can be supplied coated / lined or provided with a special surface treatment. This is usually done right at our plant, so no additional transport to a coating plant is required. Surface treatment is always carried out manually.

The following surface treatments are available:*

Shot blasted bend

Descaling and shot blasting

Temporary corrosion protection

Temporary corrosion protection

based on wax or clear varnish, applied to the bare steel surface.

Coatings

PUR

Polyurethane (PUR)

applied at room temperature using a hot airless technique according to DIN EN 10290.

Epoxy resin (EP)
