Abstract
A method of coating a corrugated pipe includes preparing an asphalt composition having a polymer constituent within the range of from about 3 to about 20 percent by weight, the composition having a softening point within the range of from about 180.degree. F. to about 250.degree. F. and a viscosity at a temperature of 360.degree. F. within the range of from about 600 to about 4000 cps, heating the asphalt composition to a temperature within the range of from about 340.degree. F. to about 390.degree. F. and coating the corrugated pipe by positioning at least a portion of the corrugated pipe in the heated asphalt composition for a time sufficient for the corrugated pipe to reach a temperature of at least 150.degree. F. The coated pipe is then removed from the asphalt composition for cooling.
