SCRIM REINFORCED FOAM TAPE

High-Performance Insulation and Bonding Solution

SCRIM REINFORCED FOAM TAPE is a premium insulation tape designed to provide exceptional performance and durability. The inclusion of an internal scrim provides significant advantages over standard foam tapes, allowing for use in more harsh environments. Highly resistant to oils, acids, alkalies, and most solvents, as well as water, water vapor, UV exposure, and freeze-thaw cycling. It is pest resistant and actively inhibits the growth of fungus, mold and mildew. Engineered with a closed-cell Nitrile Rubber (NBR) foam backing and a scrim-reinforced acrylic adhesive, this tape offers superior mechanical strength and dimensional stability.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Superior Insulation: Effectively insulates hot and cold pipes, tubing, and other surfaces.
  • Flexible and Conformable: With an ultimate elongation of 200% (ASTM-D 412), the tape easily wraps pipes, fittings, and irregular surfaces for a complete seal.
  • Temperature Resistance: Withstands temperatures from -50°F to 257°F – ASTM-D 3575.
  • Environmental Resistant: Highly resistant to oils, acids, alkalies, and most solvents, as well as water, water vapor, UV exposure, and freeze-thaw cycling.
  • Self-Adhesive: Provides easy and secure application with an easy peel backing.
  • Compatible Surfaces: Adheres reliable to clean metals, glass, plastic, and painted surfaces.
  • Acoustic Dampening: Effective sounds deadening and vibration barrier – reduces noise transmission from piping and equipment.
  • Seals Gap: Easily fills and seals small gaps, joints, and irregular surfaces.
  • Exceeds Industry Standards: Fire Safety Compliance – meets multiple standards including FMVSS 3012, DIN 4102 (B1), and UL94 (HF-1, HF-2, HBF-1, HBF-2)
  • Eco-Friendly Composition: The product is CFC FREE and does not contain solvents, heavy metals, or benzene.
  • Paintable: Can be painted to match surrounding surfaces.

Directions

For best results and to ensure a long-lasting, secure bond:

  1. Prepare the Surface: Ensure the pipe or fitting surface is clean, dry, and free of moisture, oil, or rust.
  2. Initial Wrap: Remove the release paper and begin spirally wrapping the tape around the piping.
  3. Optimal Overlap: For maximum efficiency and a continuous seal, wrap the tape with approximately 50% overlap.
  4. Do Not Stretch: Apply the tape by pressing it firmly into place, avoiding excessive stretching.
  5. Insulating Fittings: For complex surfaces like valves and tees, cut small sections of tape to press and mold into place until the metal is completely covered.
  6. Build Thickness: For areas with extreme conditions, apply additional layers of tape to reach the required insulation thickness.
  7. Final Securement: Press down firmly over the entire tape surface to ensure the pressure-sensitive adhesive has fully adhered.
