Covalence FlexCad II Roll

Quick Overview

Covalence® FLEXCLAD –II tapes are stretchable, hand-wrapped, heat-shrinkable tapes used for corrosion protection of pipe bends and also for small diameter straight pipes in distribution networks. Construction: Multi wrap construction: Adhesive: High-Shear strength copolymer adhesive and Backing: Flexible, radiation cross-linked, low density polyethylene. The installation is carried out directly on the cleaned and prepared pipe surface without any primer. During installation, FLEXCLAD-II is to be wrapped spirally around the bend with a 50% overlap. The carrier is heated and shrinks tightly around the substrate; at the same time, the sealing adhesive melts and is forced into all surface irregularities, forming a thorough coating and a complete bond with the substrate. Features of the product include different mechanical classes, highly flexible, compatible with varying pipe diameters, self-tensioning heat-shrinkable backing, and no special equipment required. Benefits of the product include that it provides options to the customer and allows cost savings, it is easy to apply at both low or high temperatures & on pipes of small diameter, it minimizes inventory thus saving money, it is easy to use thereby saving time, and it keeps installation costs low.
