Contour Apex™ is a custom-engineered and optimized composite system for high-pressure pipeline repairs. It employs a robust, bi-directional fiberglass with a specially formulated epoxy system to reinforce external corrosion and mechanical damage such as dents, wrinkle bends, and gouges on transmission and distribution lines.

Light-weight, corrosion-resistant Contour Apex helps keep critical pipelines in service during installation, fits to complex geometries, and installs over laminations and thin-wall pipelines where welding cannot succeed. Repairs are fast, restoring the pipe beyond its original strength.

Applications

  • External corrosion and mechanical damage
  • Distribution pipelines
  • Transmission pipelines

Benefits

  • Extends the life of aging and corroding assets
  • No pipe cutting or welding to in-service pipelines
  • Prevents future external corrosion
  • Can install on laminations and thin-wall pipe
  • Does not mask future ILI inspection of repaired defect

Compliant with

  • US CFR 192 (Gas) and 195 (Liquids)
  • ASME B31 Standards
  • ASME PCC-2
  • CSA Z662
  • ISO 24817
  • API 570 and 653
