Video: Understanding Thermoplastic Liners (TPLs)

Patrick Meyer, Product Line Manager - Thermoplastic Lined Tubing, discusses thermoplastic liners (TPLs).

Thermoplastic liners are made of high-performance polymers and are successful in rod pump and corrosive wells. The only downside is the thickness of the liner, which causes tubing drift. Different resins, like HDPE and PEEK, are used in thermoplastic liners, with varying properties.
