The RedLineIPS SmartPad System, developed by Cogbill and currently pending patent approval, offers a groundbreaking solution to combat the pervasive issue of corrosion in industrial piping systems, specifically at pipe support points, commonly referred to as "Corrosion Under Pipe Supports" (CUPS) or "Corrosion Under Supports" (CUS)
Pre-insulated pipe shoes, are essential components that ensure these systems operate effectively, especially when transporting substances at extremely low temperatures. This guide delves into the specifics of pre-insulated pipe shoes, their composition, necessity, functionality, and benefits, with a focus on the demanding conditions of the petrochemical and LNG sectors.
In the realm of industrial piping systems, where durability and reliability are paramount, the unsung hero often turns out to be the unassuming Teflon liner. Teflon, also known as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), has earned its stripes as a versatile and robust material that plays a pivotal role in safeguarding pipe supports…
Metals such as steel and aluminum are foundational to industrial fabrication, offering a range of properties that cater to specific needs across diverse sectors.

Pipe supports play a vital role in the operation, safety, efficiency, and longevity of piping systems in petrochemical and gas facilities. These systems are crucial for transporting a myriad of substances, including oil, natural gas, and various chemical products, under conditions that may involve high pressures and temperatures, mechanical stress,…
Plate bending, also known as sheet bending or metal bending, is a common and often critical metal fabrication process used to reshape flat metal plates into curved or angular forms. It involves applying force to a metal plate to induce plastic deformation, causing the material to bend or form into…
In the world of industrial materials, Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP) stands out as a true marvel. Often referred to as fiber-reinforced polymer, FRP is a composite material created from a polymer matrix reinforced with fibers like glass, carbon, or aramid. Its unique properties make it indispensable across a variety of industries,…
Corrosion Under Pipe Supports (CUPS) is a common and often overlooked issue in industrial piping systems, leading to significant structural damage and potential system failures. This type of corrosion occurs at the points where pipes rest on their supports, and is exacerbated by factors such as friction, trapped moisture, contact…
