DESCRIPTION
Effective protection for underground pipes
Expanded HDPE extruded net with a three-dimensional structure composed of overlapping and intersecting series of parallel threads.
Thanks to its structure, it ensures an effective protection of underground pipes in trenches.
USE-ADVANTAGES
Applications
- Rockshield protection of underground pipes and their anti-corrosion coating.
- Mechanical protection of underground pipes and their anti-corrosion coating from possible damage during transportation, installation and backfilling.
Features
- Extruded High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) net
- Three-dimensional structure
Advantages
- High compressive strength, tensile strength and tear resistance
- High protection
- Suitable for pipes of any size
- Light, flexible and easy to shape

INSTALLATION
Installation for pipes with limited circumference

1 – Lay and unroll the mesh parallel to the pipe to be protected
2 – Place the net under the pipe
3 – Wrap the pipe with the net, overlapping the edges by around 15 cm
4 – Fix the net with a plastic strap or through hot mounting
Installation of pipes with large circumference

1 – Cut the net into pieces that must be about 15 cm longer than the circumference of the pipe
2 – Wrap the pipe with the net overlapping the previously installed net by around 15 cm
3 – Fix the net with a plastic strap or through hot mounting
Installation as “capping”

1 – Unroll the net parallel to the pipe to be protected, which has already been installed in the excavated hole
2 – Lay the net onto the pipe so that it covers the upper part of the pipe completely
3 – Backfill the hole
