Stopaq Cold Applied Tapes

Stopaq cold-applied tapes are non-toxic, prefabricated corrosion-preventative wraps used to protect pipelines. These monolithic coatings are cold-applied, meaning they are applied at ambient temperatures without curing, and adhere immediately to various surfaces, providing an impervious barrier against water and oxygen to prevent corrosion. The tapes will adhere to a wide range of substrates, including steel, as well as factory coatings such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), epoxy, and polyurethane.

They are available in different grades for various operating temperatures and are often used with outerwraps for mechanical protection. Furthermore, the material has a self-healing ability, allowing it to repair minor damages, extending the service life of the coating.
