specific project applications.

The DDX - Directional Drilling Kit is a

high performance system designed to

protect welded joints on PE and FBE

coated pipelines in directional drilling

applications. The DDX system consists

of the following key components:

applied to

steel for maximum corrosion

protection.

composed of high

shear strength adhesive, a protective

heat shrinkable HDPE backing, and a

pre-attached closure patch.

incorporated to

protect the leading edge of the

underlying primary sleeve during pull-

through operation.

In addition to providing effective

protection against pull-through forces

that occur during the directional drilling

operation, Canusa's DDX is a 3-layer PE

system that provides superior corrosion

protection at pipeline weld joints.
