F1L-,*WR <br /> KS <br /> In the early 1990s, due to corrosion and other issues, <br /> the petroleum industry had rendered steel pipe obsolete <br /> in underground fuel transfer applications. Rigid fiberglass <br /> pipe was introduced as a potential replacement pipe <br /> t h solution . But, like steel pipe, fiberglass pipe required glued <br /> elbow joints that posed potential leak points, and if a leak <br /> EAC.T ever did occur it would demand total excavation to resolve <br /> the problem . Enter PISCES and ultimately FlexWorks <br /> SHEET by OPW. A joint-less, flexible pipe solution that forever <br /> I b ; <br /> changed the world of fuel transfer with the highest level <br /> • of environmental protection possible. Easiest, fastest, most <br /> cost effective installation of any fuel transfer pipe of any <br /> kind, and totally accessible all the time without ever having <br /> to break concrete to maintain or replace. <br /> .The Chemistry of Partnership - 50 Years of Proven Kynaro #1 in Flexible Fuel Transfer <br /> 20 Years of Innovation PVDF Chemistry Pipe Worldwide <br /> In 1997, OPW combined its engineering At the heart of all OPW piping is Kynar Today, FlexWorks by OPW is the bona fide <br /> and manufacturing expertise with Arkema 's PVDF, Arkema's patented chemistry with industry standard in flexible fuel transfer <br /> world-renowned scientific minds, to create a 50-year performance record in the world's pipe worldwide.
