Features & Benefits
Glass Lining for Ductile Iron Pipe, Fab and Fittings
MPI glass-lined ductile iron pipe, fab and fittings are designed for wastewater, industrial, sludge, grease, and other corrosive applications requiring long-term resistance to chemical attack, abrasion, and buildup. The smooth, non-porous glass lining protects the ductile iron and minimizes the accumulation of grease, sludge, biological growth, and mineral deposits, helping maintain efficient hydraulic flow throughout the system's service life.
Key Benefits
- Vitreous, inorganic glass lining permanently fused to the piping through a controlled firing process.
- Highly resistant to a broad range of acids, bases, salts, and wastewater-related chemicals.
- Smooth, non-porous surface minimizes product adherence and biological buildup.
- Provides a hard, durable barrier that resists abrasion and corrosion while preserving flow characteristics.
Applications
- Wastewater treatment plants for sludge lines, scum lines, and centrate lines where struvite, vivianite, grease, and other solids tend to accumulate.
- Grit handling and abrasive services in treatment plants because the lining offers excellent abrasion resistance.
- Sewage collection and force main systems where grease, solids, or aggressive waste streams can cause deposits and corrosion.
- Industrial wastewater and industrial sewage pipelines that handle corrosive or abrasive liquids.
- Chemical processing applications where enhanced chemical resistance is required.
