Product Description
PrimaTape® is a high quality woven fabric impregnated with a water activated special cement that is used to protect pipe fittings and connections made of steel, cast iron, cement and plastic pipes.
PrimaTape® is mainly designed to provide a mechanical protection against impact for pipe connections, welded joints, push-ins, fittings, elbows and socket joints.
The tape’s core benefits including high impact resistance, economic, environmentally friendly, quick and easy-to-apply make PrimaTape® the better choice and can be utilized in different industries and types of pipelines. The impact resistant composition materials make it suitable for not only low-pressure water and sewage pipelines, but also for high-pressure oil and gas pipelines.

Application Steps
STEP 1
After preparing the treated area including applying the primer, wrapping the coating and conducting related tests, place the tape upright in cold water until completely soaked and no more bubbles appear.
STEP 2
Allow excess water to drain off then gently squeeze the tape with both hands to drain off excess water.
STEP 3
Start wrapping inward around the treated area of the pipe with light tension and 50% overlap until the first layer is reached.
STEP 4
Smooth excess cement by hand on the first layer before applying a new layer. Then, apply the second and following layers using the same instructions until the 8 layers are seamlessly completed.

Quantity Estimate Table
For desired impact protection, a layer of around 1/4 in (7 mm) thickness is necessary to be achieved by wrapping the tape in eight layers with 50% overlap.
