Thermal Pipe Systems, Inc. TAPER-TITE® 230 A Proven Tapered and Bonded FRP System Featuring High Flow, Corrosion Free Service For Condensate and Low Temperature Hot Water Taper-Tite is a lightweight, easy to install, energy efficient piping system for use in low temperature hot water and condensate return service. This system may be used for water only in temperatures to 230ºF at pressures to 150psi. The carrier pipe is filament wound epoxy pipe with a resin rich liner. The system is produced with matching tapers on bell and spigot ends. Insulation is thermally efficient polyurethane foam with a ‘K’ factor of 0.16 at 70ºF. The heavy wall PVC or HDPE casing and heat resistant end seals keep the insulation dry. A complete line of fittings is available for this system. To join Taper-Tite apply the adhesive and push the matched tapered bell and spigot ends together, heat curing may be required. Thermal expansion and contraction are taken up by the pipe itself. The piping system is non- corrosive and maintains very high flow characteristics. It is an excellent choice for underground condensate return lines, district heating systems, dual temperature lines, and geothermal heating systems. The piping system is approved for use by Federal Agencies for condensate, hot and chilled water. The Thermal Pipe systems Casing-Tite Sleeve provides an easy and efficient means of insulating the joints. TECHNICAL DATA TAPER-TITE ® 230 PIPE
