The SINTAKOTE pipeline system is available across the full size range and can be tailor-made to suit specific design parameters.  The medium density polyethylene coating is applied to the preheated pipe by a fusion bonding process.  The process results in a smooth, holiday-free coating with a high resistance to cathodic dispondment and mechanical impact.

SINTAKOTE was developed by Tyco Water in conjunction with Australian Water Authorities, to progress from the inadeuate protection systems used previously.  Used in Australia since the early 1970's, the system now covers over 1800km of Australian piplines.
