Omegaflex DoubleTrac® Pipe Systems
DoubleTrac® installs easier and reduces installation costs
Like our entire line of flexible piping. DoubleTrac® flexible direct burial piping is easier to install and is less labour-intensive than rigid pipe installations. DoubleTrac® requires no special tools to assemble and can be bent by hand. The special field-attachable fittings provide a reliable metal-to-metal seal through our proven technology. What’s more, it’s supplied in continuous lengths from a spool that eliminates the need for splice joints – no electrofusion joint welding, no adhesives, no curing problems, and no leaks.
DoubleTrac® creates an environmentally safer system – and at a lower cost
DoubleTrac’s® innovative double-wall design includes a primary interior layer of zero-permeation, highly corrosion resistant corrugated stainless steel with an outer EFEP barrier layer bonded to a Nylon 12 protective layer. The unmatched strength of stainless steel combined with the superior permeation resistance of EFEP in the second barrier layer combine to provide a highly durable design utilizing proven materials in the industry. The interstitial space provides continuous monitoring for leak detection – making DoubleTrac® the industry’s most effective Zero Permeation piping solution.
Features & Benefits
Routes easily along or underneath docks.
The Nylon 12 outer jacket is UV stabilized and salt water resistant; no chase pipe is required.
Can be supplied in extra long continuous lengths; eliminating transition sumps on the dock.
Additionally, a double containment flexible floating dock connector is available.
Suitable for use with all diesel fuels; utilizing the DoubleTrac stainless steel fittings, all wetted surfaces are stainless steel.
Secondary containment rated for 50 psig or full vacuum allowing for continuous monitoring.
DoubleTrac’s innovative double-wall design includes a UV stabilized Nylon 12 outer layer, providing excellent resistance to weathering, and chemical exposure.
Elbows and tees available to facilitate installations in restricted spaces, double containment flow through maintained throughout all fittings.
Rigorous Safety & Practical Use Testing
Since the standard was published, DoubleTrac® pipework has been undergoing testing and analysis by UL to prove it can meet the requirements set out.
In September 2020 DoubleTrac was approved and certified as UL1369 listed. To win this approval DoubleTrac® has met all of the below requirements and tests:
- ‘General Use Rating’ for fuel transfer on-ground, in buildings or through duct & sumps.
- ‘Special Use Rating’ option for “Marina Use” on fixed or semi-floating docks (additional corrosion resistance & tide cycle testing).
- Compatibility with common fuels (Diesel, Gasoline E0-E85, etc.)
- Special Fuel Rating option for fuel blendstocks (B100, E100, M100)
- Special Liquid Rating option for special flammable liquids, chemicals or unclassified liquids (AdBlue)
- Temperature Rating @ -30 °C & 50 °C.
- Fire Resistance Rating at least 30 min – 2 HOUR FIRE TESTED
- Various Mechanical Strength tests (pressure/vacuum)
- Various Physical Abuse tests (Drop, impact, puncture, pipe and fitting torque, tension, compression, bending, support bracket)
