NACE SP0375 – Field-Applied Underground Wax Coating Systems for Underground Pipelines: Application, Performance, and Quality Control

This NACE International standard practice includes guidelines for surface preparation, material requirements, application, and handling of hot- and cold-applied wax and component wrappers and wax-based tape coating systems for the protection of underground pipe, fittings, and valves. The standard outlines material requirements for hot- and cold-applied wax coatings, and handling of the coated components, and includes five tables that provide material requirements and references to standard test methods for the various coating materials discussed. This standard is intended for use by corrosion control personnel, design engineers, project managers, purchasers, and construction engineers and managers.
