Specialty Linings and CoatingsProduct Overview
Fast Fabricators Inc supplies pre-fabricated, ready to install ductile iron pipe, fittings (Flanged, Mechanical Joint or Grooved) and valves protected with a variety of lining materials including Glass Lining, Ceramic Epoxy, and Fusion Bond Epoxy. All are manufactured to meet proper AWWA/ANSI standards.
Ceramic-Epoxy lining is applied in another unique process that forms a chemical and physical bond between two dry chemicals and the metal surface. This product is ideal for transfer of fluids with <3% solids. The finished lining is NSF-61 approved and has a much higher chemical resistance than that of stainless steel or glass lining. Ceramic-Epoxy lined piping systems are used to transfer potable water and corrosive fluids alike. One important application is the transfer of wastewater in areas where pockets of corrosive hydrogen sulfide fumes can form due to changing pipe elevations. Fusion Bonded Epoxy is a one-part, heat cured, thermosetting epoxy coating designed for corrosion protection of metal and custom fabricated fittings. The epoxy is applied as to preheated steel as a dry powder which melts and cures to form a continuous, insulative corrosion barrier. the product is resistant to corrosive soils, hydrocarbons, harsh chemicals and sea water. The product is NSF-61 approved. Glass Lined Pipe

Glass lining is applied in a unique process that forms a permanent chemical and physical bond with the metal surface. The finished surface is extremely smooth and has a hardness of 5-6 on the Mohs scale. These characteristics make glass lined pipe ideal for transfer of fluids with >3% solids and/or solids or chemicals that tend to adhere to the inside of bare pipe. In such applications, the use of glass-lined pipe will significantly reduce the maintenance, wasted energy and pump-repair cost associated with solids build up in piping systems. Fast Fab’s glass lining is also resistant to high temperatures, thermal shock and a wide pH range. One important application is the use of glass-lined pipe in the scum and sludge lines in sewage treatment plants, to eliminate the problems associated with Struvite and Vivianite deposits.
