Powercrete-DD Kits

 Powercrete-DD Kits for Hand Application

     Powercrete-DD is the premier factory applied ARO in the market with the strongest performance in the most important areas of pipe coatings, HDD and road bores.  An industry staple for decades now, Powercrete-DD continues to be a growing market.

     Here is a complication it creates:  the pipe makes it to the field with Powercrete-DD applied to the line pipe and contractors often question:  ok - what do I put on the joints now?  There are a lot of specs out there that call for Powercrete-DD on the field joints as well; but those are generally mistakes.

     Powercrete-DD is not a stand alone coating.  It is an OVERCOAT, meaning it would be applied on top of another coating.  I've yet to hear of anyone in the US who is selling Powercrete-DD small kits for coating field joints.  

     In cases like that, Powercrete J is the preferred field joint coating to use alongside your Powercrete-DD coated pipe.  Powercrete J is proven, has many of the same strongest metrics in the most important categories and is relatively easy to apply.

     If you're looking for something that is more a fast cure; Powercrete R65/F1 will fit that bill and if you're looking for something that can go on in a thicker coat (high build) then Powercrete R95 might be what you're looking for. 

     In any case, you spent the money to apply the Powercrete-DD to ~39 feet on every pipe joint.  You should make certain your field joints (~2.5% of your pipe coating) get the same high quality corrosion protection.
