PT&P fabricated 323 FRP wear pads for an oil refinery in Texas. The wear pads are for pipe sizes of 2″, 3″, 4″, 6″, 10″, 12″, and 16″, and vary in lengths of 4″, 6″, 10″, and 12″. They were fabricated from vinyl resins, and are designed for operating temperatures up to 400°F. The FRP pads are secured to the pipe using an epoxy adhesive to protect the uninsulated pipe from the metal support structure. Standard visual and dimensional tests were performed prior to shipment.
