Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for producing corrosion resistant alloy-clad metal pipes by: (a) providing one or more pipes to be clad; (b) providing an exothermic mixture; 5 (c) loading and distributing the exothermic mixture into the one or more pipes in a cladding assembly at a rotational speed suitable to generate a centrifugal force of at most 10 times the gravitational force; (d) igniting the loaded exothermic mixture using an ignition system at a rotational speed generating a centrifugal force of at least 50 times the gravitational force; 10 and (e) applying a post cladding pipe procedure.
