      How to Use

      SURFACE PREPARATION

      Remove any dirt, oil, grease, rust by suitable methods.
      Remove any metal burrs or weld spatter. The minimum
      requirement for surface preparation of pipe/steel surface
      is by mechanical/power wire brushing to remove any
      rust scales. Grit blasting can also be done in heavily
      contaminated areas

      PRIMER

      Bitutape Primer* (solvent based bitumen primer) shall be
      used for priming the steel surface prior to the application
      of the wrapping tape. Stir the contents of the primer for
      1-2 minutes to remove any sediment. Apply the primer
      at the rate of 4-6m2/L with a brush or roller evenly to
      ensure complete sealing of all small undulations and
      imperfections, particularly around weld beats. Reseal the
      containers when not in use.

      WRAPPING

      Application instructions are for guideline only and are
      subjected to alterations for specific project requirements.
      Wrapping should not commence until the primed surface
      has become touch dry. Apply strips of tape 100mm wide
      along the weld beads and press firmly. Peel back 150 to
      300 mm of the release film and apply the tape, adhesive side, to the pipe. The angle of the tape must be such as
      to produce the specified overlap. Apply only sufficient
      tension to ensure good conformation avoiding air pockets
      and bridging. Ensure end lap area of at least 150 mm
      when splicing the tapes. Backfill with care. Use of an
      Bitustick R protection membrane is recommended to
      prevent any damage from backfilling. Avoid use of rocky or
      agglomerated backfill.
