SS TUFF PIPE
Design and Specifications
SS TUFF Pipe® is designed as a double contained direct bury underground piping system for steam, condensate, and heating water. SS TUFF Pipe® specifies the use of factory-fabricated, drainable, dryable, and testable systems that meet applicable codes. The carrier pipe and outer jacket are 304 stainless steel with varying wall thicknesses based on size and is insulated with mineral wool. All spacers, fittings, anchors, and end seals are 304 stainless steel as well.
Design
Design professionals are responsible for ensuring the system meets energy performance requirements. All system components must be capable of operating at a minimum of 150 psi and adhere to ANSI and ASME standards. Here at SS TUFF Pipe, we are happy to work with your design team to insure the piping system is designed with your project parameters in mind.
Installation
Installation of SS TUFF Pipe® must be performed by certified contractors, while ensuring thermal expansion control, proper bedding, and backfill. During the installation process, the system must undergo hydrostatic or pneumatic field testing, with wall penetrations sealed.
