RockArmour™ PRO
ROCKARMOUR™ PRO is a pipeline protection material composed of multilayer polyethylene liner that is perforated to provide impact resistance. RockArmour Pro is inert to biological degradation and resists naturally encountered chemicals, alkalis, and acids. It protects pipeline coatings during installation and backfill operations without interfering with cathodic protection.

*No damage to pipe coating
* Rocks of varying size were combined to create an impact force of 50 and 75 ft. lbs. of force drops from a distance of 6 ft. The pipe coupons were coated with 0.02” thick bonded coating and were covered with one wrap of 80 mil RockArmourTM PRO protective wrap.

INSTALLATION METHOD
RockArmour™ PRO is installed using a material roller implement mounted to an excavator, for fast easy installation. RockArmour™ PRO is secured using 400lb tensile strength ties integrated every 3ft. The ties are installed at our site before shipping, allowing for maximum efficiency in the field during installation.
​
RockArmour™ PRO is manufactured in roll lengths and widths to meet your project needs.
