PipeSak bag weights offer a number of advantages over other pipeline weighting systems.

		Economical Low product price, reduced handling costs, and use of local gravel as ballast combine to make PipeSak the most economical pipeline weighting system.
		Short lead time PipeSaks can be fabricated and shipped directly to a site, often within days.
		Easy to install Installation is simple. Fill the PipeSak bag weights with gravel from a local source, distribute along the right of way, lower over the pipeline, and back-fill.
		Easy to store Leftover PipeSaks can be folded up and put on a shelf until your next project.
		Less weight required PipeSak's "effective weight" under water often exceeds that of equivalent concrete weights due to less water being displaced.
		Environmentally friendly Concrete coatings and saddleweights can leach chemicals into the ground water. PipeSak's non-biodegradable polypropylene fabric is filled with local gravel, making them as environmentally friendly as the natural stone used to fill them.
		Trench friendly No extra trench depth required. Less trench dewatering required. PipeSak conforms to most trench bottoms. Depth of Cover Considerations When Using PipeSak
		Better Cathodic Protection PipeSak is as permeable as the ballast used to fill it, allowing groundwater and cathodic protection an easy path.
		Soft PipeSak bag weights are a soft buoyancy control, allowing the pipeline the ability to move slightly while still maintaining negative buoyancy and coating protection.
		Easy to remove PipeSak is non-biodegradable and can easily be removed if ever required.
