Dualoy 3000/LCX Fiberglass Pipe

Dualoy 3000/LCX rigid fiberglass coaxial piping is a cost-effective solution for contained piping systems. LCX is used for product delivery lines in underground fuel handling systems to convey fuel from the tank to the dispensers.

Description

The advanced performance capabilities of Dualoy 3000/LCX offer a substantial cost benefit and, most importantly, meet safety and compliance needs. The unique coaxial construction of Dualoy 3000/LCX offers many features and makes this fiberglass pipe the best value in corrosion-resistant piping solutions. High strength and stiffness make Dualoy 3000/LCX virtually indestructible, offering predictable and reliable performance. Its compact design allows less trenching and takes less warehouse space.

Fiber Glass Systems is the market leader for underground fuel piping systems, with almost 50 years of continuous supply of UL-listed products. Dualoy 3000LCX piping is reliable and has never been removed because of fuel incompatibility; thus, there are no reinstall costs. Our products are designed to meet governmental environmental regulations, including those of the EPA.

In-series piping

The coaxial design makes it easy for through-the-sump piping, saving installation cost and time.

Leak prevention

UL-971 bonded sump entry fittings provide positive seal at the sump, preventing leaking of underground fuel in or out of the sump. Our Bonded Sump Entry Fitting–Termination Style also provides Class I protection, which complies with California’s requirement for continuous interstitial monitoring of the piping systems' secondary containment.

Specifications

Dualoy 3000/LCX Coaxial Double-Wall Pipe Specifications

Size range 2- to 4-in. UL listed
Inner corrosion barrier Resin-rich liner
Pressure ratings 140 to 200 psi
Construction Manufactured as an integral unit. Primary is made of chemically inert, nonpermeable, fiberglass-reinforced epoxy resin, which is inherently resistant to deterioration due to water and microbial attack. This layer is covered with a porous layer to provide the small interstitial space that facilitates rapid leak detection. Then, the containment layer, comprised of the same material as the primary, is wound over the primary and porous layers.
Primary fittings Bell and spigot
Temperature range -40 to 150 °F (65 °C)

Dualoy 3000/LCX Secondary Fittings Specifications

Adhesive bonded clamshell fittings (compression molded for exact fit; material identified to primary fittings)
Pressure ratings Up to 50 psig
Chemical service Petroleum products, alcohols, alcohol-gasoline mixtures, ethanol, methanol, MTBE, biodiesel, diesel exhaust fluid (Adblue)
Available lengths Up to 40 ft
UL 971 listed for all UL identified applications and fuels
  • Secondary containment fittings or pipe (SC)
  • Normal vent line from tank (NV)
  • Primary carrier (PC)
  • Primary/secondary combined into one unit (PS)
