8 Wrapid Tape TM 4 pipes Wrapid Tape TM Primerless Crosslinked Protective Tape Canusa Wrapid Tape consists of a crosslinked polyolefi n backing, coated with a protective, heat sensitive anti-corrosion adhesive which effectively bonds to steel substrates and common pipeline coatings including polyethylene and fusion bonded epoxy. Upon the application of heat, Wrapid Tape shrinks down to fully encapsulate the protected substrate. The product is packaged in convenient rolls with various widths to protect and repair pipelines, fi ttings, bends, elbows and other irregular confi gurations. Easy Installation The flexibility provided by the thinner tape dimension allows Wrapid Tape to effectively protect both conventional substrates such as circular pipe as well as irregular transitions such as elbows and risers. Upon the application of heat, the specially formulated adhesive flows into all surface irregularities, forming a protective barrier against corrosion. Saves Time & Money Wrapid Tape is quick and easy to install. Since no special priming or operator equipment is required, product installation is quick and labour costs are kept to a minimum. Unlike conventional cold-applied tapes, Wrapid Tape does not require the use of high volatile primers, further minimizing costs and risks to health and safety.
