WHY YOU SHO THE BEN' RED THREAD 11 F UL/ULC 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. RED THREAD IIA pipe and RED THREAD II fittings are UL Listed for conveying petroleum products,alcohols, Corrosion resistant RED THREAD II pipe offers long life and requires little maintenance. and alcohol-gasoline mixtures under- ground.
