  • Memphis, TN-AR-MS (1888PressRelease) April 16, 2013 - Bailey-Parks Urethane will debut an innovative, long-lasting polyurethane piping system to replaces the metal systems used on trailers that transport fracking sand at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC), May 6-9, 2013, at the Reliant Center in Houston, Texas. Representatives of Bailey-Parks will be available to share technical information and answer any questions about this exciting new development at booth number 6100.

    Frac-sand is typically transported via truck using a dry bulk trailer with three hoppers. Sand is extracted from this three-part rig through a system of aluminum pipes that runs along the bottom. Because fracking sand is so abrasive, these metal pipes wear out rather quickly. The Bailey-Parks urethane piping system has been specially designed to stand up to the wear caused by frac-sand and lasts significantly longer than its aluminum counterparts.

    This cutting-edge system is the latest polyurethane innovation for the oil and gas industry. Urethane has proved an excellent material for the manufacture of a number of other critical components involved in fossil-fuel extraction, including hydrocyclones, impact pads, scrapers, sheeting, and wiper blades. Incredibly wear-resistant, urethane lasts significantly longer than aluminum or steel in corrosive conditions like those encountered in the oil, gas, and mining industries.

    Exhibiting at booth 6100, Bailey-Parks will make brochures, samples, and technical data for all of its products available, with a special emphasis on the new urethane piping system it has developed for the transport of frac-sand.
