Versil-Pak
Versil-Pak is protective packaging material that combines a highly formulated adhesion wax and a high strength fabric. The waxed barrier material is strong, easy to use, and durable. It is especially suited for hand wrap applications in the field.
Flexible, greaseproof, waterproof Versil-Pak is ideal for protecting underground piping in corrosive or severe environments. It works as a total barrier against high moisture, acidity, bacterial attack or galvanic attack, which can contribute to pipeline corrosion.
Versil-Pak is made with a carefully selected fabric saturated and coated with a high adhesion adhesive wax, as well as a high barrier plastic film. It combines high tensile strength, good moldability, excellent dead-fold and high dielectric strength. It conforms to nearly any industrial surface, including hard-to-reach welds and threads, straps, yokes, joints and valves.
Benefits
- Less bulky and more efficient coverage than other petroleum wraps.
- Conforms to odd shapes and sizes.
- Barrier to contaminants even in most demanding conditions.
- Polyester provides superior strength.
- Locks out soil, grease, dust and contaminants.
- Provides corrosion, abrasion and impact protection
- Two-sided adhesion wax provides tight overlap seal.
Applications
Versil-Pak protects industrial plant piping where corrosive action is prevalent or where conditions are severe. This includes:
- Air lines
- Sprinkling system piping
- Cold water pipe
- Gas pipe and other metal tubes.
It is ideal for use as a tight wrap on
- Underground piping, pumps and irregular shapes on oil field machinery,
- Large electric motors,
- Buried equipment needing strong barrier and dielectric protection.
Constructions
- Heavy weight woven cotton fabric, coated
- Medium weight open mesh cotton fabric, coated and laminated to barrier film.
- Medium weight cotton fabric, coated and laminated
- Heavy mesh cotton fabric, coated and laminated.
Meets Military Standards
Two types of Versil-Pak pipe wrap meet the requirements of military specification MIL-B-121:
- Versil-Pak #5-1: Mil B-121, Type 1, Grade C, Class I.
Polyester high strength fabric core provides high-strength and carrier of the protective wax. High adhesion wax assures excellent barrier properties. It is treated with fungicides to help reduce antimicrobial induced corrosion (MIC). - Versil-Pak #5-2: Mil B-121, Type 1, Grade C, Class 2.
Polyester high strength fabric core provides high-strength and carrier of the protective wax. Two-sided high adhesion wax assures excellent barrier properties. It is treated with fungicides to reduce antimicrobial induced corrosion.
