OVERPIPE®

Protection Plates for Underground Pipeline Networks

OVERPIPE®

Trusted globally.

Lightweight and easy to install.

Easy removal allows for inspections or repairs.

Made of durable HDPE.

Setting the global standard for protecting pipelines, communities and the environment, OVERPIPE® provides the highest level of protection for buried pipe systems without requiring the labor, equipment, or cost-intenstive installation procedures of traditional pipe barriers systems.

The plates can withstand 32-ton excavator impacts and resist degradation and embrittlement in any soil or climate. Lightweight and easy to install, OVERPIPE® plates can be easily removed to allow inspections or repairs.

Quality

  • The OVERPIPE® plates are made of durable injection molded HDPE.
  • Perforated surface (less than 1% of total surface) to allow for the flow of water. These perforations come from the molding process. Holes from manual drilling will weaken the plate.

Efficiency

  • Easy and quick installation procedures translate to reductions in project timelines, GHG emissions, and costs when compared to installing steel plates or concrete slabs.
  • Does not disrupt cathodic protection currents or interfere with pipeline locating equipment.

Safety

  • Beveled edges and non-slip pins on both sides to facilitate handling and avoid slip and fall accidents.
  • Full body yellow color provides an effective warning signal to prevent third-party damage. Different colors are available depending on the nature of the network.
  • Fully customizable embossed warning message, available upon request.
