U L / U LC Listed system Smith Fiberglass Products offers complete Underwriters Laboratories and Underwriters' Laboratories of Canada (UL/ULC) Listed systems of product and containment piping. RED THREAD II fiberglass product piping in 2", 3" and 4" diameters and 3" and 4" containment piping carry the UL/ULC label for conveying petroleum products underground. UL/ULC Listed 3" and 4" contain- ment piping fits over 2" and 3" product lines. Special two-piece UL/ULC Listed fittings complete the outer pro- tective shell. The result is a pressure testable containment system which can be continuously monitored. Exceptional Corrosion Resistance UL/ULC Labeled (listed) RED THREAD 11 pipe resists corrosion from petroleum products such as diesel fuel, gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, and fuel oil. Manufactured from tested and proven epoxy -reinforced fiberglass materials, RED THREAD II pipe resists internal and external corrosion caused by soils and by corrosive fluids typically found in service station applications. Smith Fiberglass Products testing shows that RED THREAD II piping can also be used for conveying gasohol in any alcohol blend, including 100% ethanol and 100% methanol. Quality Assurance High quality standards have been established for RED THREAD II piping systems. Continuous tests are con- ducted to assure that these high quality standards are met or exceeded. All manufacturing equipment and raw t Pi u tIVAIaim L'I Mo"MALL-1 _="YM I Corrosion resistant RED THREAD It pipe offers long life and requires little maintenance. materials are routineiv and carefully checked and monitored. The quality assurance procedures for UL/ULC Listed RED THREAD II pipe exceed the minimum hydrostatic test requirements of Underwriters Labora- tories. The mill test pressures for pipe are as follows: 2" — 1,000 psig 3" — 700 psig 4" — 500 psig The inspection rate for RED THREAD II pipe is over 989/o—far above the require- ments of Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Molded product fittings are 100% hydrostatically tested per UL/ULC requirements. Secondary containment fittings are tested on a sampling plan in accordance with UL/ULC requirements. 0 Copyright 1989 Smith Fiberglass Products Inc. t and " Trademarks of Smith Fiberglass Produns Inc. Maintains Product Purity RED THREAD If pipe, with its fiberglass and resin construction, is inert to petro- leum fuels, assuring freedom from con- tamination in the product being handled. High Pressure/ Temperature Rating RED THREAD II pipe in 2 -inch size has a cyclic operating pressure rating of 250 psig at 150° F. Thermosetting Properties RED THREAD II pipe is made with a thermosetting epoxy resin. This means it won't soften, cold -flow or balloon ... even at its maximum operating temper- ature of 150' F. And, it doesn't get brittle in temperatures as low as -40d F.
