Heatshrink sleeves

|
We
are specialized in the applicator for field
installation on pipe line operating between
40oC and 80oC in most cases these coating
can be applied without the necessity of
removing the pipe line from service or use
of high steel preheat temperature, also we
are specialized in the application of heat
shrinks on the weld jointed pipes for any
size.
The coating comes either as HTLP a sleeve
for girth weld coating and bell-hole repairs
or as retroclad, a tape for continues line
coating, retroclad/HTLP consist of a thick
radiation cross linked polyolefin backing
coated with high-shear strength
thermoplastic adhesive that is activated by
a curable liquid epoxy contains 100% solid
and cures upon installation of the sleeve or
tape.
After applying the epoxy to a precleaned
pipe surface the HTLP sleeve is wrapped
around the pipe and a flexible closure is
applied to form the sheet into a tube.
Similarly, the retroclad tape can be
continuously wrapped around the pipe either
by hand or by a conventional tape wrapping
machine. With both products, the backing is
heat recovered to provide an even tension
that forces the moltan adhesive to flow and
fill around all pipes irreoulantie. After
application, the cured epoxy bonds result in
very high adhesive strengths to both the
steel and to the thermoplastic adhesive:
these high shear stunt materials or able to
resist soll stresses and backfilling.
The installed HTLP and retroclad products
are both three layer coating (epoxy,
thermoplastic adhesive, and cross linked
polyolefin backing) that provides a tough,
reliable high performance corrosion
prevention system that is easily installed
in field.
We have near about ten years experience in
the heat shrink field.
