RiserWrap™ Corrosion Barrier
RiserWrap™ is a flexible corrosion barrier made up of a fiberglass cloth and proprietary RiserBond® epoxy and is applied as
a wet lay-up. RiserWrap™ can be applied to irregular shapes offshore, in the splash zone and even underwater as well as,
provide superior protection for soil/air interfaces.

Applications |
Components |
Installation |
- Offshore risers and process piping,
- Onshore pipelines,
- Bends, welds, flange necks and other non-linear surfaces,
- Coating/riser interfaces.
|
- Underwater curing, RiserBond® epoxy adhesive,
- Fiberglass cloth.
|
- Pipe substrate must be prepared,
- RiserBond® mixed and applied to pipe to be protected,
- Fiberglass cloth wrapped around pipe,
- Process repeated, depending upon number of layers required.
