Splash Zone Protection
Common applications of this product include pipeline coatings, platform structural members (legs and diagonals), conventional risers, pipelines pulled through J-tubes, conductors, and the lining of riser clamps. Mark Tool has coated offshore platforms with SplashTRON® for two decades.
The tough, long-lasting elastomer is applied to structural members exposed to the splash zone during fabrication. It provides complete protection against the erosive action of abrasive-laden seawater, the harsh attack of ozone and ultraviolet rays, incidental impact from boats and floating debris, and the effect of sea life which builds upon all offshore installations.

An important feature of SplashTRON® in pipeline coating application is the fact that it is completely and permanently bonded to the metal surface, and because it is flexible, it won’t crack or disbond as the members bend, expand, and contract. This product can be expected to protect against corrosion for the life of the platform. SplashTRON® has proven its effectiveness in the Gulf of Mexico and other offshore areas around the world for more than 30 years. It is used by the leading producers of oil and gas, and most transmission companies.
