 Male/female joint details for small diameter pipes

AKS is a "cast-in" Concrete Protection Liner (CPL) manufactured from HDPE or PP resin. It has been specifically designed to offer concrete structures maximum protection from chemical attack. This cast in liner is produced in sheet form in widths of up to 3 meters and in lengths to suit the individual applications. The anchor knobs are homogeneously formed with the liner during the manufacture of the AKS sheet. They are not welded to the sheet in a secondary process. A key factor in the success of AKS is its ability to bridge gaps in concrete where coatings - which depend entirely on the integrity of the substrate for support - may fail.
