Mining & Energy Applications - Certa-Lok restrained joint PVC piping systems

Certa-Lok Applications:
Mining/Energy Fluid Transfer

For close to 40 years, CertainTeed has offered CertainTeed Yelomine™ Piping system for fluid transfer to the mining and energy industry. Combined with Certa-Lok™ technology, CertainTeed Yelomine can be used for a variety of mining applications, including dust control, fire protection, and dewatering. Not only is Yelomine with Certa-Lok technology used in traditional coal mining applications, it has been a successful water transfer solution in leach mining and natural gas applications.

The Certa-Lok Advantage

EFFICENCY	Certa-Lok spline joint makes Yelomine components easy to install and disassemble for relocation and reuse Significantly higher tensile strength – pipe wall can be 40% thinner than HDPE and achieve same pressure rating
PERFORMANCE	Maintains watertight seal even after multiple disassembly/reassembly cycles Greater flow capacity than HDPE at HDPE at similar pressure ratings- saving you time and energy
SIMPLICITY	Easy to assemble – no special tools or training needed No solvents or butt fusion welding needed - can be installed with minimal space
SUSTAINABILITY	Extremely resistant to harsh environments, acids and most chemicals PVC cannot pit or corrode, which means increased product life
