Abstract: The iron-based piping element (1), in particular made from cast iron, for a buried pipeline, includes an outer coating (9) including: a first layer (11) having at least one porous layer of zinc/aluminum alloy containing 5 to 60 wt % of aluminum; a second layer (13) of adhesive situated on the first layer (11); and a third layer (15) situated on the second layer (13) and including a synthetic organic material. The method for manufacturing such a piping element is also described.

Abstract: The invention relates to an outer coating (9) for an underground piping member (7) made from iron, in particular cast iron, the outer coating comprising a first porous layer (11) and a second porous layer (13) positioned on the first layer and capable of plugging the pores of the first layer (11). The first layer comprises substantially pure zinc or an alloy or pseudo-alloy of zinc, the alloy or pseudo-alloy comprising at least 50 wt % zinc, and preferably between 0.5 wt % and 40 wt % aluminum. The second layer comprises a paint with a base of at least one organic resin, the paint being either single-component in an organic solvent or co-solvent, or dual-component. At least one among the first layer and second layer comprises a bactericidal agent. The invention also relates to a corresponding coated piping member and method for depositing the coating.

The invention also relates to a corresponding coated piping element and method for depositing the coating.

Abstract: A cast iron piping system element has an outer coating comprising a first, inner porous layer consisting of zinc/aluminum alloy containing from 5 to 60% of aluminum, and a second, outer pore occluding layer of an organic or mineral binder in an aqueous, solvent or powder phase with a thickness of 100-140 .mu.m.

Abstract: A cast-iron pipework element adapted to be buried has an external coating made up of an inner layer of zinc, a porous intermediate layer of zinc/aluminium alloy containing from 5 to 55% of aluminium, and a porous outer layer, or pore-blocking layer, comprising an organic binder, especially a water-based paint, a bitumen varnish or an epoxy resin.
