Versil-Pak Heavy-Duty Barrier Wrap

Versil-Pak is a heavy-duty protective packaging material that combines a high-strength fabric saturated and coated with a high-adhesion adhesive wax and a high-barrier plastic film.

  • The waxed barrier material is strong, durable, and engineered for straightforward hand-wrap applications in the field.
  • Flexible, greaseproof, and waterproof, Versil-Pak is designed for protecting subterranean piping assemblies and machinery in corrosive or severe environmental conditions.
  • It functions as a robust physical barrier against high moisture, acidity, soil bacteria, and galvanic currents that contribute to pipeline corrosion.
  • Characterised by high tensile strength, excellent mouldability, reliable dead-fold, and high dielectric strength.
  • It conforms to complex industrial shapes and components, including hard-to-reach welds, threads, straps, yokes, joints, and valves.

Applications

  • Protects plant piping infrastructure where corrosive action is prevalent or conditions are severe, including air lines, sprinkler systems, cold water pipes, and gas lines.
  • Utilised as a secure, tight wrap on underground piping, pumps, and irregular geometries on oilfield machinery, large electric motors, or buried equipment requiring high barrier and dielectric protection.

Benefits

  • Easily conforms to irregular shapes, components, and dimensions.
  • Provides a protective barrier against external contaminants even under demanding field conditions.
  • Integrated polyester elements provide enhanced structural strength and tear resistance.
  • Effectively isolates metals from soil contact, grease, dust, and particulate matter.
  • Delivers integrated corrosion, abrasion, and mechanical impact protection.
  • Features a two-sided adhesive wax formulation to ensure a tight, overlapping moisture-proof seal.

Constructions

  • Heavyweight: Woven cotton fabric core, fully coated.
  • Medium-weight Open Mesh: Cotton fabric core, coated and laminated to a high-barrier plastic film.
  • Medium-weight Standard: Cotton fabric core, coated and laminated.
