The “MC” in MC Outerwrap stands for
“moisture cured”. The materials in the wrap
start to cure when exposed to moisture
in the air. Soon the wrap develops a very
hard and tough outer coating. |
Description
Trenton
MC Outerwrap is used above ground or below
ground as a mechanical protective wrapper over
Trenton’s Wax-Tapes. It is a specialized blend of
quick-curing resins impregnated into a fiberglass
fabric. It provides soil stress protection and
backfill protection to coatings that need additional
mechanical strength.
Trenton MC
Outerwrap is specifically designed as a “hard
shell,” UV stable outerwrap for use over the
Wax-Tapes. It can also be used over other coatings.
It is sold complete with gloves and Trenton End
Adhesive. It is hand applied. No application
equipment is needed.
Advantages
- Provides
mechanical
protection to Wax-Tapes
- Superior
protection against soil stress
- Protection
against backfill
- Paintable “hard
shell” coating
Application Procedure
Apply any of
Trenton’s coatings. Then, with only enough tension
to keep the slack out, spiral-wrap MC Outerwrap with
at least a 50% overlap (use 80% overlap when needed
in high stress areas such as transition pipe in clay
soils). Make sure MC Outerwrap is extended out past
the new coating on both ends for better anchoring.
At the end of the last roll, brush on End Adhesive
for MC Outerwrap to prevent possible unraveling
before the wrap has cured.
