Lining Technologies

Tite Liner® System

United Pipeline Systems developed the Tite Liner^® system in 1985. Since then, over 80 million feet of pipelines have been lined with our internal pipe lining system.

PreFIT™ Tite Liner® System

United Pipeline Systems is pleased to announce the PreFIT™ Tite Liner® system, a new product offering of pre-lined pipe with a range of supporting end connectors. This system utilizes thermoplastic lining inside a steel pipe, effectively combining the strength of steel with the corrosion, chemical and abrasion resistance of thermoplastic.

Safetyliner®

Advances in lining technology have enabled United to introduce the Safetyliner^® product - an innovative plastic pipe liner that offers an extra level of pipeline protection.

Condition Assessment

Pipelines can be inspected for possible degradation post-lining. United Pipeline Systems offers these remote field technology (RFT) inspection services through a partnership with Russell NDE Systems Inc. of Alberta, Canada.

Pipeline Management and Monitoring

Learn how the non-bonded, pipe-within-a-pipe nature of the Tite Liner^® system allows continuous monitoring of the completed pipe lining system.

Rotational Lining

Rotational lining (aka rotolining) is a technology which allows us to bond a uniform, seamless polymer layer to the interior of virtually any metallic structure, regardless of shape and complexity.
