PIPE PRODUCTS Red Thread IIA PIPE Epoxy pipe that is light weight and provider;; ',onq service life and corrosion resistance. UL/ULC Listed piping is available in 2"-4" primary pipe sizes and 3"-6" containment pipe sizes. Non UL JLC Listed containment piping is available in 8"-16" diameters. T.A.B. (Threaded and Bonded bell and spigot) i-- the sthe primary joining method for 2"-6" pipe. Pipe comes in 15, 25, and 30 foot random lengths. FITTINGS (UL Labels are supplied on the smallest packaging container, not the Fitting.) PrimirV Fittings Clam Shell Secondary Containment Fittings STORAGE AND HANDLING Packaging, Ordering, Shipping Information Pipe comes in 15, 25 and 30 ft. (5, 7.6 and 9.2 meter) random lengths. The number of lengths per bundle varies with the pipe diameter. Two-inch pipe is supplied with a protective mesh covering. The protective mesh covering must remain in place on primary pipe that is not contained. The protective mesh covering may be removed when installed in containment pipe. TABLE 1.

Caps should remain in place until installation time to protect the pipe ends as well as prevent dirt or other material from entering the pipe. Fittings and adhesives should be stored in a cool dry area. If fittings are removed from the boxes, protect machined bells and spigots from exposure to direct sunlight. Storing Bundles can be safely stored on level ground or on racks with 10 foot (3 m) or less support spacing. Use supports with a minimum of four -inch (100 rnm) wide bearing area to prevent damage to the pipe. Do not store on rocks or other hard objects that could cause point -loading damage. When outdoor storage is required, check to assure the pipes' protective end caps are in place to protect the machined surfaces from weathering. Use black polyethylene or other ultraviolet ray blocking material to cover all factory -prepared bonding surfaces if end caps are missing or not available. Transporting Use care in handling the pipe and fittings. When transporting from storage to the job site, do not allow pipe to extend more than 10 feet ( 3 m) beyond the end of the truck or trailer bed; permanent damage can result from excessive bending stress. Protect pipe to prevent impact and point -loading damage. During transport, strap the pipe down with nylon or hemp rope tie downs. This will help prevent abnormal movement of the pipe during transportation. Wood orpadded supports are essential0�1 for truck or trailer beds that have sharp edges (such as metal plates on the back of a flat-bed trailer). When transporting the pipe on trucks x with narrow overhead piping racks, padded supports must be used to prevent point loads. If chains are used during transport, they must be well padded to prevent damage to pipe walls. Loading and Unloading When the pipe is not specialty packaged, it should be loaded and unloaded by hand. When properly palletized or otherwise adequately protected, forklifts may be used. Do not throw or drop pipe and/or fittings from the truck to the ground.
