Wrapping tapes can be a suitable solution for covering underground pipes and pipelines to prevent corrosion of steel lines. These sleeves are known worldwide as a reliable solution.
1- Joint Wrap
2- Inner and Outer Warp (2PLY, 3PLY)
3- Primers
| Tape Widths (in) | Pipe (NPS) | Bends (NPS) | Tee (NPS) | Tape Lengths (m) |
| 2 | Up to 3″ | Up to 8″ | Up to 12″ | 10 to 60 |
| 4 | ≥ 4″ – ≤ 8″ | 10″ – 24″ | 14″ & Over | 10 to 60 |
| 6 | ≥ 10″ – ≤ 32″ | 26″ & over | ——- | 10 to 60 |
| 10* | 36″ Over | ——- | ——- | 30 to 120 |
*Over 6 inch tapes can not hand applied and must wrap it with wrapping machine.
The standard formula to calculate the total length of tape required is:
Where:
D: Outside Diameter of the pipe.
L: Length of the section being wrapped.
W: Width of the wrapping tape.
w: Overlap width (the amount the tape covers the previous layer).
π: Constant approximately equal to 3.1415.
| Application | Typical Overlap (w) |
| Corrosion Protection | 50% to 55% (Double layer) |
| Thermal Insulation | 25% or 1-inch minimum |
| Mechanical Protection | 30% to 50% |
