The tough, yet flexible, SPLASHTRONŽ
is uniformly bonded to the metal surface to be protected in the"Splash
Zone" in thicknesses of 1/4", 1/2",3/4", and 1".
It resists impact damage, has exceptional weatherability, requires no routine
maintenance, has excellent insulating properties (thermal and electrical)
and can be used at temperatures from -45°F to 200°F. Applications of "Splashtron"
include platform structural members (legs and diagonals), conventional risers,
pipelines pulled through J-tubes, conductors and
the lining of riser clamps.
Mark
Tool Co. has coated offshore platforms with "Splashtron" for two decades. The
tough, long-lasting elastomer is applied to structural members in the"Splash
Zone" during fabrication. It provides complete protection against the erosive
action of abrasive-laden seawater, the harsh attack of ozone and ultraviolet
rays, incidental impact from boats and floating debris and the effect of sea
life which builds upon all offshore installations.
An
important feature of "Splashtron" in platform coating service is the fact that
it is completely and permanently bonded to the metal surface, and because it
is flexible, it won't crack or disbond as the members bend, expand, and contract.
"Splashtron" can be expected to protect against corrosion for the life of the
platform.
"Splashtron"
has proven its effectiveness in the Gulf of Mexico and other offshore areas
around the world for more than 30 years. It is used by the leading producers
of oil and gas, and most transmission companies. Mark Tool Co. manufactures
the exclusive "Splashtron" at our modern facility in Garden City, Louisiana.
