PTFE-Lined Pipe and Fittings
Fluoropolymer (PTFE) or Teflon lined pipe and fittings offer exceptional resistance against corrosive chemicals, as well as superior flexibility and the ability to handle high-temperature liquids. SEMCOR is an authorized distributor of Baum and Resistoflex® PTFE-lined pipes and fitting products. We supply the companys’ complete lineup of PTFE-lined piping and accessories in sizes ranging from 1” to 12”. With the strength of steel and superior corrosion resistance, PTFE-lined piping is an excellent choice for many industrial applications. SEMCOR has one of the largest inventories of PTFE lined pipe and fittings in the entire Midwest and can fabricate pipe spools in-house that have up to a 10-inch diameter. Do you need field fabrication tools for your project? We have you covered for those as well. We have the lined pipe field fabrication tools for purchase or rent to meet your requirements.
Polypropylene (PP)-Lined Pipe and Fittings
Polypropylene (PP) lined pipe is our most economical option for industrial fluid handling. Polypropylene lining delivers excellent resistance to acidic and basic fluids and can handle temperatures up to 225˚F (110˚C). However, it does not handle solvents and VOCs well, and can become brittle in low temperatures. Typical uses for Polypropylene-lined piping include water treatment, chemical processing, and power generation. PP-lined piping is also a popular choice for use in food and beverage manufacturing, processing and packaging.
Baum PTFE-Lined Pipe and Fittings
Baum PTFE piping has been designed to reduce permeation rates by up to 60%. Made from specially formulated resins, Baum PTFE liners deliver optimal crystallinity and strength, even in severe service applications. As a result, they can withstand exposure to both aggressive chemicals and higher temperatures. For more information and detailed product specifications, contact SEMCOR directly.
PVDF-Lined Pipe and Fittings
PVDF lined pipe — also known as Kynar® lined pipe— is extremely tough and durable, with superior abrasion resistance compared to other types of lined piping. It has a high thermal expansion coefficient and is suitable for use with halogens and high-strength acids. As a result, PVDF-lined piping is often used for pulp and paper manufacturing, chemical processing and electronics manufacturing. Kynar is less suitable for processes involving pH levels higher than 11, or temperatures above 275°F (135°C).
Ceramic-Lined Pipe and Fittings
Ceresist manufactures ceramic lined valves, fittings, piping, orifice plates and custom engineered ceramic products. Ceramic products are designed for the most severe service applications by using corrosion and abrasion resistant ceramic materials.
For all of the above products, we carry an extensive supply of pipe fittings and accessories. Let us put together a complete package containing everything you need for your application.
