Pipeline Anchor Systems
Pipeline Anchor Demo
Cyntech has built a solid reputation as an industry leader in the design and manufacture of pipeline anchor systems and accessories. Our anchor systems eliminate the need for concrete weights or concrete coated pipe to control pipeline buoyancy. Personnel and equipment hours, materials, storage and transportation costs are all significantly reduced. The advanced anchor design and exclusive pipeline saddle provides unparalleled performance and longevity, regardless of the installation environment.
Features:
- Suitable for 10" to 48" pipe sizes
- Compact and lightweight
- Minimal transportation costs
- Standardized parts and accessories
- Non-corrosive polyester saddle design ensures longevity
- Load equalization between anchor points
- Positive hold-down without overweighting
- Low profile-reduced trench depth

CYNTECH PIPELINE ANCHOR SYSTEM vs CONCRETE WEIGHTS
| CYNTECH PIPELINE ANCHOR SYSTEM | CONCRETE WEIGHTS | |
| DESIGN | Cyntech's anchor system is designed to provide a hold-down capacity of 2.5 times the buoyant force of the empty pipeline. |
Concrete weights typically provide a weight of 1.1 times the buoyant force of the empty pipeline. |
| SPACING | Typical spacing for NPS-24 pipeline is 33 meters. | Typical spacing for NPS-24 pipeline is 5.6 meters. |
| STORAGE | Pipeline anchor materials for 10km of NPS-24 pipeline would require 30 square meters of storage space. | Concrete weights for 10 kilometres of NPS-24 pipeline would require 866 square meters of storage space. |
| TRANSPORTATION | Pipeline anchor materials for 10km of NPS-24 pipeline would require 3 truckloads. | Concrete weights for 10km of NPS-24 pipeline would require 199 truckloads. |
| INSTALLATION | A typical anchor installation crew would consist of a 5 ton picker truck with a hydraulic drive unit, an operator and two labourers. | A typical weight installation crew would consist of a backhoe, an operator and two labourers. |
Cyntech’s anchor systems have been extensively tested and proven successful in numerous installations for leading corporations in the pipeline industry. Cyntech will provide complete turnkey installation services, or our professional engineers and technicians will work with you to specify and custom design the optimum anchor system for your project.
