Double-walled Fiberglass Petroleum Pipe

Double-walled Fiberglass Piping

Ameron
Ameron Fiberglass Pipe can withstand higher temperatures and pressures than ordinary thermoplastic materials. That, together with its corrosion and chemical resistance, makes it particularly well-suited for general industrial service and chemical processing applications. Using Ameron double-wall fiberglass petroleum pipe for service stations avoids the environmental risk inherent in the use of corrodible metal piping. Ameron Dualoy Fuelhandling solutions include Dualoy 3000/LCX coaxial piping systems, 3000/L single wall rigid piping, and tank and dispenser sumps.
