New Literature Explains Benefits of Adhesive Tapes for Pipeline Protection


Windsor, Conn. - November 7, 2006 - New literature from Scapa North America describes the company's line of RENWRAP® anticorrosion pipeline protection systems, pressure sensitive adhesive coatings, outer wraps and primers designed for use in the oil, gas, and water industries.

Pipeline Protection for the Long Haul is a six-page brochure that describes the use of adhesive tapes for on-land pipeline protection and provides detailed information on the full line of RENWRAP protection products. The brochure explains that RENWRAP products can be applied to new construction pipeline located in plants or in the field as well as for the repair and reconditioning of existing pipelines. The adhesive systems perform well over a range of operating temperatures, are impermeable to water and oxygen, and are compatible with coal tar, fusion bond epoxy, asphalt and polyethylene pipeline coatings.

REWRAP products resist soil stress, under-film moisture migration, environmental stress cracking, and mechanical damage from handling. Products are used for over-the-ditch line travel, joint wrapping, and yard coating.
