IPC System 5 is an industry-leading multi-coat system of Teflon PFA formulated to provide superior chemical and permeation resistance in some of the most severe environments in the world.
It has been successfully applied to a wide variety of oil and gas production equipment components including valves, fittings, pipe spools, downhole complete tools, sucker rods and more.
The Benefits of Our Teflon PFA Coating – Temperature Resistant, Creep Resistant and Chemical Resistant
IPC System 5 is a tested and proven coating that has been used in various applications including injection wells, brine service, etc. in some of the most corrosive conditions and environments around the world. It offers superior chemical resistance and the ultimate in corrosion and permeation protection.
Superior Corrosion and Permeation Protection
IPC System 5 offers superior permeation protection, helping your materials maintain structural integrity for years to come.
Designed to Withstand Vapour Permeation
IPC System 5 provides a strong permeation barrier against gases and liquids commonly used in industrial and oil and gas applications.
Excellent Thermal Stability
The industry-leading multi-coat system of Teflon PFA provides higher continuous-use temperatures (260 °C [500 °F]) than alternative coating options.
Superior Chemical Resistance
IPC Coatings have become synonymous with chemical resistance, offering the highest levels of protection against a variety of harmful chemicals.
Good Abrasion Resistance
IPC System 5 has the ability to withstand the wear and tear of friction often seen in most oil and gas systems.
High Film Build
Teflon PFA is thermoplastic and builds up significantly thicker than other fluoropolymers. This offers greater toughness than similar industry coatings.
Creep Resistance
IPC System 5 resists stress cracking and attack by almost all known chemicals and corrosive solvents.
Highly Temperature Resistant
This makes IPC System 5 highly adaptable and ideal for use in both high and low-temperature environments.
