February 26, 2009 Update - Lubrizol is providing this update regarding the use of antimicrobial coated steel pipe with BlazeMaster(r) CPVC fire sprinkler piping systems. Contractors should not use steel pipe with antimicrobial coatings, such as Allied's ABF II, in conjunction with BlazeMaster CPVC pipes and fittings, unless the factory applied coated steel pipe has been approved for inclusion in our FGG/BM/CZ(tm) System Compatible program (www.systemcompatible.com). This recommendation covers antimicrobial coatings that are applied by the pipe manufacturer or sold separately in the aftermarket. At this time, Wheatland Tube Company's MIC SHIELD(tm) Coating (for steel pipe manufactured after 2/22/2009-the date when the product's validation was completed) is part of the FGG/BM/CZ System Compatible Program. For Wheatland Tube MIC SHIELD(tm) coated pipe manufactured before 2/22/2009 please contact Wheatland Tube for clarification. In the aftermarket, Potter Pipe-Shield(tm) corrosion inhibiting antimicrobial liquid is approved as part of the FGG/BM/CZ System Compatible Program. The coating must be applied and used in accordance with the manufacturer's installation instructions.
