ZincTape
6Pages

The product The product consists of a zinc-tape of high pureness (99,99% of the chemical mass of zinc) with a nominal thickness of 0,080 mm. This tape is supplied with a 0.025 mm thick adhesive, which can resist continuous operating temperature of 80 C and which reacts under electro-conductive pressure. The adhesive layer is covered by a siliconised paper, which protects the band from getting damaged or polluted until the tape is applied. The product is available in two forms: A) in rolls, whose width and length are shown in the table below > in shapes, based on the clientВs needs > 10 15...

Coupling steel - light alloy The point of contact between light alloys and iron materials can be subjected to corrosion. When these two materials get in both electrical and electrolytic contact, a galvanic process begins. The electrolytic contact arises when a solution (usually rain-water) seeps between the two surfaces. This contact can even be caused by signs of dampness between the two surfaces or by a chemical non- homogeneity of one of the two surfaces because of the presence of oxides, dirt, etc. Since the electrochemical potentials of steel and iron materials are more electropositive...

Application fields COATING OF LIGHTNING POLES AND TANKS Metallic poles are usually protected on their whole surface or on the part of the surface where there are joints. The coating is usually carried out by the supplier of metallic poles. Coating of joints on the spot Coating on joints at the manufacturer's Coating of the whole surface Coating of gas tanks During application Application on supporting tanks >
