THE CHALLENGE
Advanced Pedestals, Inc., (API) of Gainesville, Texas, a
manufacturer of plastic pipe components, saw an opportunity
to design a flapper valve that could improve upon traditional
brass valves and enable non-corrosive, all-plastic piping
systems.
Because oil contains paraffin
and other residues that can build up inside pipes, a “pig” or
special scraper must be run through the pipe periodically to
clean it out.
This would not only avoid corrosion, but also eliminate weak
spots.”

New Life for Aging Pipe
In many situations when these situations arise, interrupting service to dig and repair miles of pipe is necessary, but in this case, because of the complex piping systems, it is not an option.
https://www.avient.com/knowledge-base/article/advanced-composites-explained
A polymer composite gives the product strength and stiffness, while adding benefits, such as resistance to moisture and corrosion.
Composites are resistant to the elements and corrosive saltwater, provide high strength and stiffness, and dampen noise and vibration for a smoother ride.
In all cases, polymer composites enhance performance thanks to their resistance to corrosion, heat, weather, and flame.
