Thickness loss
Initial liner
Pipe Pipe or liner thickness Percent of Performance
No. (mils) liner' mils rating
1 Percent thickness loss based on lining thickness of 60 mils maximum, as described in specifications for RPM pipe.
A
Calculation of percent loss = where A = erosion loss in mils and
B-10'
B = original thickness of lining in mils.

2 No erosion test on these sections; there was only water in the rotating pipe toascertain integrity of the liner. Pipe 60 gained 79
grams and pipe 6P gained 36 grams during the test, and linings in both pipes developed fine blisters.
