What Is Bitum Tape? How Does Bitum Anti-Corrosion Work?

Nowadays, in order to protect structures from corrosive agents, anti-corrosion materials are widely used and popular in many industries. These structures are built from materials that need to be guaranteed in terms of quality and longevity to limit damage, replacement and repair.

There are many methods of anti-corrosion such as using composites or high-end coatings such as Polyurea. However, today we will learn about a flexible and quick solution which is using pipe wrapping tape. 

Anti-corrosion tape is an effective solution thanks to its outstanding features and flexibility. So what are the features and benefits of this tape? Let’s find out more detailed information about this special tape with Sancopack!

What is Bitumen Anti-Corrosion Tape?

Bitumen Anti-Corrosion Tape is specially designed to protect pipes, including fire fighting, water supply and gas pipes, both above and below ground from corrosion. 

Metal anti-corrosion tapes are usually made from materials such as polyethylene and bitumen rubber. They are resistant to environmental influences such as water, chemicals and other corrosive elements. This tape is wrapped around the metal surface and creates a protective layer against corrosion.

How Does Bitumen Work In Anti-Corrosion Tape?

Bitumen in anti-corrosion tape plays an important role in protecting metal surfaces from corrosive agents. Here are some of the main uses of bitumen:

  • Waterproof : Bitumen has high waterproof ability, preventing water and moisture from penetrating metal surfaces, minimizing the risk of electrochemical corrosion.
  • Environmental isolation : When used in anti-corrosion tapes, bitumen creates a thick and durable protective film, completely isolating the metal surface from environmental factors such as air, chemicals and seawater.
  • Elasticity : Bitumen has good elasticity, which helps the tape easily adhere and cover irregular or complex shaped surfaces, creating a continuous and tear-free protective layer.
  • Heat resistance : Bitumen has good heat resistance, helping to protect metal surfaces in extreme temperature conditions without deformation or reduced protective efficiency.
  • Chemical Resistance : Bitumen is resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including acids and alkalis, increasing the protection of metal surfaces in environments where corrosive substances are present.
  • Easy to apply : Bitumen tapes are usually easy to apply, can be quickly wrapped and applied to metal surfaces, saving time and costs during maintenance and repair.

Instructions for Using Bitumen Anti-Corrosion Tape

Before application, ensure that the substrate to which the bitumen tape will be applied is free of oil, water and dust. Any presence of these elements may affect the adhesion process.

  1. Surface cleaning : Clean and dry the surface to be applied. Completely remove oil, water and dirt to ensure the best adhesion.
  2. Cut the tape to desired size : Use a knife or scissors to cut the bitumen membrane to the desired width and length.
  3. Apply tape to surface : Apply bitumen membrane to prepared surface. Remove anti-stick film before applying and ensure membrane is firmly applied to desired position.
  4. Check and avoid sharp objects : Before completion, carefully check around the construction area to ensure there are no sharp objects that can tear the bitumen membrane.
