Description
CorroLogic® Tube Strips powered by Nano VpCI® is designed for protection of tubes, pipes, or conduits in storage or during shipping. Using VpCI® technology, CorroLogic® Tube Strips powered by Nano VpCI® makes it possible to protect the interior of a tube or pipe against corrosion without expensive internal coatings. The flexible strip has a 1/3 inch diameter (8.5 mm). It is extruded from low density polyethylene containing a proprietary VpCI® compound designed for protection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and alloys.
BENEFITS
• Simple and safe to use
• VpCI® vapor will not interfere with subsequent processing (i.e. welding) and will not affect the chemistry if media being used during start-up of tubular systems
• No halogens, heavy metals, or sulfur
METHOD OF APPLICATION
CorroLogic® Tube Strips powered by Nano VpCI® is placed inside the tube or pipe, which is then capped or sealed. The length of Pipe Strip should equal the length of pipe. Within hours, the vapors from the Pipe Strip saturate the enclosed air space. Even in the presence of water vapor (high humidity conditions), the VpCI® vapors protect the metal surface, thus halting the process of corrosion. CorroLogic® Tube Strips powered by Nano VpCI®
