SafeBond Cathodic Protection

SafeBond® for Cathodic Protection

SafeBond® is a patented Portable Indirect Arc Bonding Method with unique features:

Low temperature. Even lower than the PinBrazing method and MUCH lower temperature compared to thermite welding
Non-Pipe-melting© properties. SafeBond® does not melt down the steel in the Pipeline as for example thermite welding does
No metallurgical impact on parent material. Safe for any steel structure
Fast Method. A SafeBond® brazing takes only a few seconds
Battery powered
Lightweight unit. Less than 10 kg (Econect©)
Safe for the operator

SafeBond® - The unique electrical cable bonding system that meets the highest metallurgical requirements for pipelines.

The patented SafeBond® system that is developed by Safetrack has already proved its superiority during more than a decade being the only cable application method in the world to be used on the hardest Premium rails used in the railway industry.

Now we launch this system also to the Cathodic Protection industry where the demands gets higher and higher because of increased use of new materials and where the owner of the pipeline infrastructure wants to protect its property as much as possible.

SafeBond® Process

The process of applying a SafeBond® is remarkably easy. The whole process takes just 1-2 minutes.

1. . The grinding machines are either powered with the SafeBond® unit or cordless.

Grind the surface

2. Apply a small amount of the special SafeBond® Flux on the pipeline and on the top of the cable lug.

3. Insert the braze electrode and ferrule in the gun.

4. Hold the gun against the cable lug and the pipeline. Any position you want (up, down, sideways, anywhere).
