Will your pipeline marker get excavators to call? - 2011 DIRT Report 9,000 customers affected… After a 24-inch water main was struck on January 16, 2012, an estimated 9,000 customers had their water services affected until repairs were completed. Would you want to risk affecting the service of 9,000 customers, let alone the repair costs, as a result of an unmarked or poorly marked water line?
Urban Test Station Solution: Upright test stations and marker posts are not practical in many densely populated urban environments. The Rhino HideOut™ provides easy access to the terminal board, an effective warning message, and is locatable. See Rhino’s solution on page 19.
Upgrading Dome-Style Posts: Replacing faded or inaccurate dome posts is very time consuming. The new RhinoDome™ Wrap is a fast, easy, and permanent way to upgrade existing markers. See Rhino’s solution on page 21.

Dibond® is comprised of two thin sheets of aluminum, thermo-bonded to a polyethylene core. The result is a material that is more rigid than solid aluminum while weighing almost 50% less. The reduced weight and increased rigidness makes this material perfect for larger facility signs or river crossing signs. The signs require less bracing and fasteners, saving both time and money on installation.
Dibond® signs are composed of the flattest material on the market today. While solid aluminum signs tend to warp over time, Dibond® signs are exceptionally flat and will not bow when exposed to the elements. Our Dibond® signs are painted with a UV stable, nylon base paint and printed using UV stable inks before they are laminated for an extra long life.

Working on or around exposed pipelines requires an increased level of safety and awareness. Installing Safety Wrap as soon as pipes are exposed will protect the integrity as well as the vital coatings from any degree of accidental line strike. The wrap is so durable it can withstand even a direct hit without being breached. The bright orange color increases visibility and ensures machine operators keep back a safe distance.
Originally designed to protect coatings during foreign crossings, Safety Wrap has been used in a number of applications to increase the level of safety on the job site:
• Coating Repairs • Bridge Work • Maintenance Exposures • Casing Repairs • Washouts • High Voltage Electric Cables • Sand Blasting
Every pipeliner monitoring 3rd party work is putting his life in the hands of an equipment operator he may or may not even know. Protect those workers and inspectors on every job site by insuring a tragic mistake or equipment failure doesn’t result in a dangerous release. Safety Wrap™
Safety Wrap comes in two versions:
• The Spiral Wrap is designed to protect pipes from 2" to 12". The wrap is easily installed in just minutes with minimal clearance.
• The Multi-Piece Wrap will protect larger pipes from 16" to 42" and beyond. Simply snap the panels together and secure with smart bands to provide the needed protection for critical large diameter pipelines.
