Casing Pipe
API 5CT Casing Pipe is most commonly used in underground construction to protect utility lines of various types from getting damaged.
API 5CT Casing Pipe is used in different types of horizontal underground boring, where the pipe is jacked into an hole in segments and then connected together by welding or by threaded and coupled ends, or other proprietary pipe connectors. The Steel casing pipe can also be set up and welded into a "ribbon" and then directionally pulled through a previously drilled hole under highways, railroads, lakes & rivers.
API 5CT Casing Pipe protects one or many of various types of utilities such as watermains, natural gaslines, electrical high voltage lines, fiber optic communication lines, etc. The utility lines that are run through the Steel Casing Pipe are most commonly mounted and spaced within the API 5CT Casing Pipe by using "casing spacers" that are made of various materials, including stainless or carbon steel and the more economical plastic versions. |
