Pipewrap Tape - PPC 555

The Precision Paper Coatings 555 Bondbreaker Tape / Pipewrap Tape is a Heavy duty black polyvinylchloride tape. Aggressive rubber/resin adhesive. Low permeability to water, moisture vapour, aqueous electrolytes. High elongation provides excellent conformability to irregular shapes and excellent resistance to corrosive effect of galvanic currents. Adhesive is designed to combine maximum grab with conformability to ensure sealing on each successive wrap in a pipe wrapping application.

Applications for our PPC 555 Pipewrap Tape: - Anti corrosive wrapping on above and below ground pipes. Anti electrolytic barrier between dissimilar metals. Joining polythene sheeting.

Directions for our Pipewrap Tape:-   Ensure pipe surface is clean, smooth and dry – power brush to remove dirt, scale, and loose rust; remove grease or oil with a solvent; and buff off metal burrs and welding splatter around welds. Begin wrapping two wraps at right angles to the pipe and by applying tension adjust the pitch to provide the desired overlap – 50% is normally recommended – the last wrap should be applied at right angles to the pipe and applied with no tension to prevent creep. Primer may also be applied beforehand.
