Why PTFE-Lined Piping Outperforms Traditional Solutions?

When it comes to handling highly corrosive chemicals, reliability isn’t just a preference—it’s a necessity. Conventional materials like stainless steel and exotic alloys might offer some protection, but they come with steep costs and ongoing maintenance challenges.

PTFE-Lined pipes in comparison are the ultimate solution for industries that demand durability, cost-effectiveness, and seamless chemical resistance.

Corrosion is the silent enemy of industrial piping. Whether you're managing aggressive chemicals in the oil & gas, chemical processing, or refining industries, unlined systems or inferior alternatives lead to costly repairs and downtime.

PTFE-lined pipes provide a game-changing solution:

• Universal Chemical Resistance: Protect against even the most aggressive acids, solvents, and alkalis.
• Cost-Effective Alternative: Skip the high cost of exotic alloys while achieving superior performance.
• Longevity in Tough Conditions: Built to last, reducing your repair and maintenance costs significantly.

SPS West is the exclusive Western Canadian distributor of BAUM Lined Pipe. Our team of BAUM-certified fabricators in Calgary specializes in the supply of PTFE, PVDF, and polypropylene-lined systems to meet your exact needs. We provide rapid turnarounds for emergency spools, project changes, and hold spools, ensuring that no project is left waiting.

Baum’s paste-extruded PTFE liners offer superior performance compared to ram extrusion or isostatic molding techniques.

• Low Permeation: Reduces the risk of chemical leaks.
• Smoother Surface: Ensures easier cleanup and inhibits organic growth.
• Enhanced Mechanical Properties: Superior elongation, tensile strength, and low crystallinity minimize cracking and enhance durability.

Baum uses melt-processable PFA liners for valves and complex shapes, such as tees. These fittings feature full penetration welds, eliminating the need for welding over PTFE and preserving liner integrity. Baum’s lined pipes and fittings meet ASTM F1545-15a, ASME B16.5, and B16.1 standards, ensuring reliability and precision in industrial applications.

What’s in It for You? Imagine seamless operations with fewer breakdowns and reduced costs. BAUM’s PTFE-lined pipes combine the strength of steel with the versatility of plastic, making them ideal for handling the most aggressive chemicals with confidence.

From pipelines and fittings to vessels and expansion joints, SPS West delivers solutions that meet the strictest quality standards while enhancing operational efficiency.
