Ductile Iron Articulated Pipes

Our WT-Pipe is a self-locking articulated pipe consisting of two identical half-shells, featuring a compact structure and a variety of designs to choose from. The articulated pipe is manufactured from ductile iron, offering corrosion resistance and high mechanical strength. Designed for challenging seabeds where traditional burial is difficult—rocky areas, coral reefs, erosion zones—it delivers a reliable, cost-effective cable protection solution. The product is internally tested to ensure long-term performance in extreme marine environments.

Key strengths

  • Self-locking design enables boltless, rapid installation; bolts may be added for extra strength.
  • Built-in bend restriction prevents cable abrasion.
  • Protects free-span areas, withstands rock dumping and trawl impact.
  • Cost-effective, environmentally friendly, durable — no special equipment required.
  • Fully traceable with end-to-end quality control.

Installation & Deployment

  • Two methods available: pre-installation with floating deployment, or post-lay installation by divers.
  • Flexible and adaptable: no special tools required. Suitable for new projects and adding protection to existing cables.

Specifications (Customizable)

  • Material: Ductile iron
  • Inner diameter range: ID 30mm – 400mm (or as per cable OD)
  • Wall thickness range: 8mm – 20mm (or as required)
  • Surface treatment: Bitumen coating, epoxy, galvanized, etc.
  • Bend radius: Can be engineered to meet different minimum bend radius requirements
Sizes can be customized to accommodate various cable diameters and minimum bend radius requirements.

We offer flexible packaging options for our ductile iron articulated pipes: fumigation‑free plywood cases, pallets, or ton bags.
For optimal protection, products must be stored indoors in a dry, rain‑proof environment, away from moisture.
