BIMEX Reinforces Suez Canal Infrastructure with Telescopic Joints
In a mission-critical effort to enhance the resilience of water infrastructure along the Suez Canal, BIMEX delivered a cutting-edge solution to support the doubling of raw water pipelines that had previously suffered breakage due to strong tidal forces.
The project involved the supply of DN1200 Telescopic Dismantling Joints (Unrigid Type)—specially engineered to allow pipeline deflection and movement. These flexible joints reduce mechanical stress, accommodate dynamic shifts, and protect against structural damage caused by the powerful tides of the Suez Canal.
By absorbing movement and minimizing stress points, BIMEX’s dismantling joints safeguard the long-term integrity of the pipelines, ensuring durability, reliability, and operational stability in a highly challenging marine environment.
