Enhancing Pipe Durability with Coating, Lining, and CRA Cladding
What is the difference between external pipe coating and internal pipe lining and cladding? External pipe coatings are used to protect the metal from corrosive environments (3LPE-coated pipes are the most common choice). Internal lining (for example PTFE) protects the pipe from corrosive fluids. Clad pipes (CRA or “Bimetallic Pipes”) have the inner surface covered by higher-grade materials to achieve stronger resistance while decreasing the overall pipe cost. EXTERNALLY COATED
