The problem: A round pipe resting on a flat support traps moisture that causes the pipe's paint to soften and fail. The trapped moisture then begins to corrode the bare steel and eat through the pipe wall, eventually causing extensive damage that can result in pipe failure.

The solution: When a round pipe is placed on I-Rod®, moisture can no longer be trapped against the pipe. Any moisture evaporates before it can cause damage. As a bonus, the raised pipe prevents contact between dissimilar metals and makes inspection much easier.
