THERMOFLEX TUBING

The Most Versatile
Piping For Oil and Gas Solution

Composite Piping design for the Oilfield
Rapid, Easy, Low-Cost Installation
Technical Support form Design
throught Installation

Made by PolyFlow Inc. USA

Multi-layer Design
Material selection designed to meet application needs
Aramid fiber designed to meet application needs
Inner Layer for corrosion resistance, low permeation and higher temp strength - Nylon and Fortron
Outer layer for higher temperature strength and abrasion resistance
Fully Bonded
Applications to 250oF ( 120oC)

Abrasion resistant outer jacket ( polypropylene or nylon, depending on chemical/ temperature environment)

Aramid fiber braid to provide strength

Intermediate layer provides stiffness, crush and kink resistance. Can be polypropylene or nylon, depending on chemical / temperature environment ( bonded to inner liner)

Inner liner is barrier layer ( Nylon for gas, oil, condensate, CO2) ; ( Fortron for H2S and high temperature)

Rated Pressure: up to 3000 psi, 172 bar
Depending on pipe diameter
Rated pressure up to 4500 psi on special request
Braid design strength: 2X rated pressure
Max. pull force: 10, 000 lbs ( 4500kg)
Fully Bonded
Applications to 250oF ( 120oC)

Available diameters: 1” to 6” ( spoolable limitation)
Coil lengths: 1000 – 24, 000’ ( dependent on tube diameter)
Chemical compatibility: oil, gas, condensates, CO2, H2S, brine, water.
No adherence of paraffin with FORTRON liner
Coupling materials: zinc chromate plated carbon steel ( 1026) or Duplex stainless steel ( 2205)

Higher pressure gathering lines
Higher pressure injection lines
Pulling through old steel pipe
Brine disposal lines
Lines with high H2S levels ( 200ppm+ )
Lines with high CO2 levels
Lines with paraffin or scale buildup issues
Low pressure wells ( liquid loading issues)

Elimination of corrosion issues / hydrocarbon resistance
Reduced installation costs / installation time
Minimizes buildup of paraffin, asphaltenes & scales
Reduced pressure drop with respect to steel

Improved total life-cycle cost

Reduced Surface Roughness of Engineered Plastics vs. Steel
Steel Relative Roughness .005
Thermoflex ® Relative Roughness .00005
Results in less drag and better flow rates/ productivity
Thermal Insulation Properties of Plastic vs. Steel . . .
3.1 BTUin/ hrft2F for Plastic vs. 360 for Steel
Material Compatibility of Polymers . . .
Enhanced Corrosion Resistance
Minimizes Buildups
