Metal pipes generally have the structural strength, but lack the chemical resistance while plastic pipes have the chemical resistance but lack the structural strength. With these issues in mind, our PTFE lined piping solutions may be your best option. Here are a few advantages of using PTFE\/PFA lined pipes in your piping systems:<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">1. They are extremely resistant to corrosion<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">PTFA\/PFA is a chemically resistant material. Lining PTFA\/PFA inside a steel pipe ensures the piping system to be both chemically resistant and structurally strong.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>2. Longer lasting than the average steel pipes<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">Depending on the chemical and substance flowing through the pipes, piping systems can last for around 3-4 years until it is corroded and unable to function properly. Having to decommission and change the piping system would result in a disruption in operation for a few days. PTFE\/PFA lined pipes lasts way longer, reducing the frequency of decommissioning and improving productivity.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>3. Allows chemicals to flow much more smoothly<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">Ever heard of Teflon cooking pans? Teflon is the trademarked name of PTFE which is used to coat cooking pans to prevent food from sticking to the pan. This property of Teflon allows for easy washing making it one of the most popular innovations in cookware. Using a similar theory, our clients come to us to have their piping systems lined with PTFE when they require a smooth flow of chemical products with minimal residue left in the pipes.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>4. High pressure and temperature resistance<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">Apart from its non-stick and corrosion resistant properties, PTFE is suitable for substances at high pressures and high temperatures which is commonly found in our clients\u2019 industries like oil &amp; gas, pharmaceutical, EPC and even personal healthcare and food industries.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>5. High permeability resistance<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">At Almarc, our PTFE liners are made with the highest quality using the paste extruded method which creates a low void content, preventing corrosive substances and particles from permeating through the liner and corroding the metal pipe structure.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"p1\">Our experts at Almarc are able to design and customise a complete lined piping system based on your requirements.
