Manufacturing > New Permalok Developments
  Since developing the patented Permalok Interlocking Pipe Joining System over a decade ago, Permalok Corporation has continued to lead improvements in the trenchless construction industry.

 

In 2002, we introduced the T7 pipe profile to meet the needs of low to medium pressure applications

The patented Permalok profile is currently being directly machined onto the pipe end, eliminating weld times and providing an improved Permalok pipe.

In 2004, we introduced the Type HDD connection, allowing the Horizontal Directional Drilling industry freedom from field welding. The Type HDD connection is capable of withstanding the unique conditions encountered in installing of steel pipe using HDD.

In the near future, we anticipate introducing more new technology advancements, including:
• Stainless and Alloys
Permalok products made from stainless and alloy steels, and other non-ferrous metals, to furtherincrease the types of projects for which you can specify Permalok.
• Outfall lines Mini/Micropiles
Research is ongoing into applying the Permalok connection to this type of construction.
• Offshore and Oilfield
Due to its unique design and quick press fit
connection, research is continuing in efforts to
utilize the joint for offshore and oilfield applications.
•

Caissons
Permalok products specifically
designed to meet the needs for drilled
shaft construction.
