PROTECTIVE CASES MANUFACTURED BY NCC ARE USED FOR GAS PIPELINES IN EKATERINBURG

Protective cases for gas pipelines were used during the reconstruction of communications by the order of JSC "Ekaterinburggaz".

Protective cases for gas pipelines were used during the reconstruction of communications by the order of JSC "Ekaterinburggaz". The protective cases for gas pipelines made by LLC "Nanotechnological Center of Composites "were applied during the reconstruction of the communications on Gottwalda Str. in Yekaterinburg. Composite cases were produced by the order of JSC "Ekaterinburggaz".

" he improved composite protective case was applied within the construction works. Taking into account the wishes of the customer the heat-resistant resins were used in the manufacturing of the product allowing the product to work effectively at increased temperatures" - noted the Head of the product line for pipeline transport, Alexey Volkov.

Composite cases replace traditional steel cases, which, among the other disadvantages, are much less convenient for installation: in particular, they require welding work, which is critical while working with gas. They also require special electrochemical protection, which the composite case, due to its characteristics, does not require. The weight of composite case for gas and oil pipelines protection is four times less than the weight of the metal one which allows to install it without the help of heavy machinery.

Today NCC is the leading player on the market of composites performing the full cycle of development and manufacturing the goods from polymer composite materials: design and strength calculations, material development, tooling production, prototyping, tests and certification. The basis of NCC production assortment are: external reinforcement system Carbon Wrap, mobile road surfaces, fiberglass railings, sprinklers and water traps for cooling towers, drainage trays and also wide range of fiberglass and carbon products produced according to the individual orders.
