    FLEXCLAD 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. The installation is carried out directly on the cleaned and prepared pipe surface without any primer. 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.

    Heat Shrinkable Products

    FLEXCLAD Heat-Shrinkable Tape Wrap for Pipe Bends


    Hand-wrapped, heat-shrinkable corrosion protection tape.

    Product description
    FLEXCLAD pipe bend coating.
    Construction: Multi wrap construction:
    Adhesives: Semi-crystalline mastic sealant (Flexclad),
    High-shear strength copolymer adhesive (Flexclad-II-C30).
    Backing: Flexible, radiation cross-linked, low density polyethylene.
    FLEXCLAD 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.
    FLEXCLAD is available in 2 mechanical classes: B30 = FLEXCLAD; C30 = FLEXCLAD-II-C30.
    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.
