Specification system for water main

An aging water main located near Irvine, Ayrshire, was identified by Scottish Water as needing replacement in 2017. A WINN & COALES DENSO P1 Specification System was selected for the protection of various ductile iron fittings on the project as a result of its products meeting the requirements of the CESWI P1 Specification.

The specifications state that a petrolatum paste (Denso Paste) shall act as a primer and cover all areas to be protected. A smooth external profile is then created with the use of a profiling mastic (Denso Profiling Mastic) to cover any projections from the pipework. Finally, the profile is spirally wrapped with a protective tape (Denso Tape) using a 55% overlap.
