The corrosion of the outside surfaces of underground metallic piping is an electrolytic phenomenon dependent on the presence at the pipe surface of water containing dissolved salts or gases. This corrosion is always associated with the flow of electric current from metal to solution and from solution to pipe. There is little difference in the rate at which metals usually employed for pipe fabricating corrode underground. It does not seem likely that metals having inherent corrosion resisting properties will be developed and made available in the quantities and at the low prices required.
