Marine and weather measuring equipment and Water quality automatic measuring equipment manufacturer
To complement our versatile range of clamping systems, a new series of moulded polyurethane spacers has been developed. These include spacers for dual lay pipeline installations and saddle spacers to interface between buoyancy tanks and pipelines.
Spacers were traditionally manufactured from wood or steel, both materials having inherent problems - wood splintering, steel corrosion, weight etc.
We manufactured some of the first polyurethane spacers/saddles which replaced wooden saddles during a major offshore pipeline installation in the southern North Sea gas fields.
Features
Since this time, a large number of projects have been completed throughout the world as the following benefits of polyurethane spaces became apparent:
ㆍNeutral buoyancy in seawater
ㆍCorrosion resistant, unaffected by seawater or UV degradation
ㆍPolyurethane can be moulded into complex shapes
ㆍ30 year design life
