Hot Pipe CoatingTM is a combination of high performance specially designed, high-temperature ceramics and resins, in a waterborne, non-flammable formula. It is used as a coating to reduce surface heat on pipes carrying hot liquid, gas or steam.
Hot Pipe CoatingTM is designed to coat surfaces that sustain temperatures between 400⁰F (200⁰C) and 900⁰F (500⁰C).
Hot Pipe CoatingTM prevents the loss of radiant heat from pipe surfaces. By retaining the heat from the interior of the pipe or vessel, heat that would have escaped now adds back to the overall heat of the fluid or gas within the pipe. Hot Pipe Coating will hold heat in a transmission pipe for longer distances than conventional wraps.
Hot Pipe CoatingTM is applied by spraying directly to operating hot surfaces that have previously been power cleaned or sand blasted. Hot Pipe CoatingTM may be applied to vehicle undercarriages and catalytic converters to reduce heat transfer into a vehicle. When applied to manifolds or headers, HPC enables gas to be burned efficiently, with the probability to increase gas mileage. HPC will also prevent corrosion.
Hot Pipe CoatingTM is designed to control heat transfer for temperatures up to 700⁰F (371⁰C). It is a water-borne system using specific ceramic compounds to provide a non-conductive block against heat transfer
Moisture ingress into conventional insulation usually results in accelerated corrosion of the underlying steel surface which can result in structural failure of the pipe, vessel, or other insulated item
In 2001, U.S. Congress reported the direct cost of corrosion to be $276 billion per year, with that number potentially doubling when indirect costs are also considered
Resists the Development of Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)
Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) refers to the external corrosion of piping and vessels that occurs underneath externally clad/jacketed insulation as a result of the penetration of water or absorption of moisture into insulation material

Installation Without Shut –Down
Typical insulation of pipes requires the installer to shut –down the mechanical system
Hot Pipe Coating can be applied to hot or cold pipes ranging from 40⁰F to 700⁰F.
