Surface preparation is a critical step in achieving a reliable internal coating. The Bauhuis hydraulic-powered internal blasting turbine delivers cleaning performance up to 500 m² per hour and meets SA 2.5 / ISO 8501-1 / ISO 8503-2 standards. For smaller pipes under 12.75”, air blast stations are available to achieve the same high-quality result.
Internal pipe coating: reliable flow efficiency
Steel pipes used for the transport of oil, gas, or water require a consistent internal coating process to improve flow efficiency and protect against corrosion. Flow efficiency coatings typically have a dry film thickness of 75 to 100 microns, while anti-corrosion coatings can reach up to 1000 microns.
Bauhuis supplies turnkey systems that bring these steps together in one integrated coating process, with configurations for manual control or fully automated operation.
