System Description
Polyken 2036 is a primary anti-corrosion joint wrap tape designed for use in field coating applications. 2036 joint wrap tape provides superior bond strength to primed steel, has a continuous operating service temperature up to 200°F, and has excellent conformability when applied to pipe.
Polyken 2036 joint wrap tape consists of a special polyethylene with very high resistance to environmental stress cracking combined with an engineered butyl alloy based adhesive, which cures when the coated pipeline begins operating at its elevated temperature. This curing gives superior resistance to shear and soil stress. It has proven in-ground success against chemical and electrolytic corrosion due to the combined effects of the polyethylene and butyl adhesive components.
Polyken 2036 is a high temperature coating which will have satisfactory performance up to 200°F continuous operating temperature. This product should be used with a special high shear Polyken primer, such as 2019 or 2027.
Product Features & Benefits
Proven Performance: Polyken 2036 is part of the total Polyken product coating system, which is used on a world-wide basis under all types of pipeline construction specifications., Integral Bond: Polyken 2036 will bond to the specially primed steel surface providing for long-term, high quality, anti-corrosion performance.
Ease of Application: Can be applied using conventional application equipment.
