PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion Tape
The PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion System has been developed for long term protection of metal surfaces that are underground, underwater, or exposed - even in the most severe environments. It consists of a cold applied system of petrolatum-based PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion Tape, PetroWrap® Primer, and, where contouring is necessary, PetroWrap® Mastic. PetroWrap® adheres to surfaces without heating, even on damp and/or indifferently prepared areas.
The System:
a |
PetroWrap® Primer Paste is a preparatory primer that displaces moisture, pacifies oxides, and fills small irregularities that occur on the surface to be wrapped with PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion Tape. |
b |
PetroWrap® Mastic is a cold applied filler which profiles areas to be tape wrapped by easing contours on pipe joints, flanges, bolts, and other irregular shapes to be wrapped with PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion Tape. |
c |
PetroWrap® Anti-Corrosion Tape consists of a non-woven, stitch bonded, synthetic fabric which has been fully impregnated with neutral petrolatum based compounds and inert fillers.

Application Instructions:
1.) |
Remove all contaminants such as dirt, oil, scale and excessive moisture. |
2.) |
Brush Petrowrap® Primer A evenly over surface to displace remaining moisture and ensure proper adhesion. |
3.) |
Press Petrowrap® Mastic B into surface irregularities to eliminate air pockets. |
4.) |
Wrap Petrowrap® Tape C spirally around prepared surface using even tension. An overlap of 55% is recommended to assure total protection. |
5.) |
Finish with Petrowrap® Overwrap D applied like Petrowrap® Tape to prevent mechanical damage as required. | |
