DENSOLEN- System AS39P / R20HT
Two tape system for the corrosion
protective coating of metal pipes
Description
DENSOLEN-System AS39P-R20HT
• Mechanically highly resistant tape
system (stress-class C-50
according to DIN EN 12068)
• Sleeve-type coating due to
amalgamation of innerwrap tape
• Practically impermeable to water
vapour and oxygen.
• Resistant to soil bacteria and soil
electrolyte
• Compatible with coatings from PE,
PP, FBE, PU, CTE and Bitumen.
The DENSOLEN-System
AS39P / R20HT consists of
DENSOLEN-Primer
• Solvent based priming solution.
Use
• For site and yard wrapping of metal
pipes or underground steel
pipelines, including spiral-and
seamwelded pipes.
according to DIN 30672 and EN
12068. For highly corrosive
Butyl rubber adhesive
PE backing
PE - butyl rubber
(coextruded)
Butyl rubber adhesive
DENSOLEN-Tape AS39P
• 3-ply plastics tape with stabilised
polyethylene backing and butyl
rubber adhesive layers on both
sides.
• Fully amalgamating within overlap
area.
• Highly conformable to any surface
structure by thick grey butyl rubber
layer facing pipe surface.
• Excellent bonding between
adhesive and carrier film via co-
extruded intermediate layer
• For corrosion protective wrapping
of bare pipe joints and bare bends
where the pipes have already
received a factory coating.
• self-amalgamating innerwrap
• proven corrosion protection
technology
• for high mechanical stresses and
highly corrosive environments
conditions and high mechanical
stresses.
PE backing
PE - butyl rubber (coex.)
Butyl rubber adhesive
DENSOLEN-Tape R20HT
• 2-ply plastics tape with stabilised
polyethylene backing and butyl
rubber adhesive on one side.
• Mechanically highly resistant by
HDPE backing.
• Excellent bonding between
adhesive and carrier film via
co-extruded intermediate layer.
• Tape application by hand (tape
width ≤ 50 mm) or by wrapping
machines (manually operated or
motor driven).
