Home Pipe Coating Solutions Products WrapidBond

WrapidBond™

A visco-elastic adhesive based system for pipeline corrosion protection

WrapidBond™ is a wraparound corrosion protective coating consisting of a modified and reinforced visco-elastic adhesive applied onto a polyethylene carrier film.

Supplied in roll form, WrapidBond™ provides effective corrosion protection by providing a barrier to water and oxygen. WrapidBond™ is for use on above ground and underground pipelines, and steel structures.

Adhesion & Creep Resistance

Specially formulated adhesive bonds to even the most difficult substrates and provides good elevated temperature creep resistance and resistance to soil stresses
Improved soil stress resistance is achieved with the installation of WrapidCoat™ PVC outer wrap

Wide Range of Applications

Diverse range of applications including: coating repair on new pipeline construction; transition areas from above to below ground pipelines; special sections such as bends, tees, flanges, etc.; rehabilitation of existing pipelines; tanks chimes, etc.

Full System Approach

Includes ultra flexible products, filler materials, weld bead and seam tapes, and Wrapid Coat™ PVC mechanical protection. Refer to the Wrapid Coat™ PVC product data sheet for more information

Field Friendly

Long shelf-life, with various widths available with convenient roll lengths for ease of inventory
Fast installation with excellent adhesion to steel and other base surfaces without applying primer
No drying or hardening time
Plastic-elastic properties allow self healing ability if damaged
