PIB Wrappingband EZ (paintable)
Polyisobutene (PIB) Wrappingband EZ (paintable)
PIB Wrappingband EZ is a unique cost-effective product intended to be used for a wide range of structural applications in atmospheric conditions where water ingress and/or corrosion is a problem. PIB Wrappingband EZ is easy to install and offers excellent sealing and corrosion prevention. The material contains a reinforcement mesh and has a non-woven top layer that allows for immediate coating after installation. PIB Wrappingband EZ shows excellent adhesion properties without extensive surface pre-treatment to various substrates like steel, PE, PP, epoxies, polyurethanes, PVC, etc. The material does not cure and can be cold applied.
The recommended top coat for PIB Wrappingband EZ is EZ Topcoat. Other types of top coats may be used e.g. 2-component polysiloxanes, epoxies and polyurethanes, or 1-component waterborne acrylics. Please consult IESG Solutions, Inc. (technical@iesgsolutions.com) for additional information.
