SECTION 5 CONVEY LINE & CONVEY LINE ACCESSORIES
Tubing and Pipe

INTERNAL-SPIRAL-GROOVED PIPE AND TUBE
• Grooved internal surfaces disrupt boundry
layer of flow, encouraging product tumble
rather than sliding flow and reducing
“angel hair” in plastic pellets.
• Available in aluminum or stainless steel
tube and pipe
• Available 2-inch O.D. through 8-inch I.P.S.
• Sandblast and shot peened treatment also
available
• Maximum length available is 20 feet

DIRECTIONAL SHOT-PEENED PIPE
Directional Shot-Peening the interior of a pipe or
tube is performed to help reduce fines and
streamers when conveying plastic pellets or resins
in a “Dilute Phase” conveying process. After the
interior of a pipe receives a shot-peening
treatment the interior would have a “dimpled”
roughness, this causes the air used in the convey
process to create a turbulence in the line,
specifically along the inner wall. This turbulence will
reduce the product being conveyed from sliding
down the wall of the convey line thus reducing
“Fines”, “Snake Skins” and “Streamers”.

Note: Shot-Peen treated pipe should only be used
in “Dilute Phase” conveying systems, and is not
recommended for “Dense Phase” convey systems.
