No.160 pipe wrapping tape combines a conformable PVC backing with a rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive. Its flexible construction allows close-fitting application around pipe surfaces, ends and coating-to-steel transitions.
This PVC protective tape for pipes can be used for temporary storage protection of steel pipes with factory-applied FBE, 3LPE and 3LPP external coatings, subject to compatibility checks and project requirements. When correctly applied, the wrapping layer helps limit moisture ingress around protected transition areas.
The tape has a nominal thickness of 0.15 mm and is available in widths from 75 mm to 150 mm. A typical 50% overlap creates a double-layer wrap across the covered area. Additional layers may be applied according to the project specification.
SLAA supplies PVC pipe tape for industrial buyers and distributors. Contact us with your pipe coating system, storage conditions and required roll dimensions to discuss product suitability and supply options.

The PVC backing and adhesive help limit moisture exposure on properly wrapped surfaces. Around coated steel pipe ends, the tape can support temporary protection of exposed coating-to-steel transition areas during storage.
The soft PVC film conforms to pipe contours and irregular areas, helping installers achieve close contact around pipe ends and coating transitions.
The PVC backing provides an additional protective layer against surface abrasion during suitable handling and storage operations.
No.160 offers resistance to oils, acids and alkalis. Suitability depends on the specific substance, concentration, exposure duration and operating conditions.
The rubber-based adhesive bonds to suitable surfaces and allows removal with little or no adhesive residue under appropriate application and storage conditions. Confirm removal performance for the intended substrate, temperature and storage period.
Widths from 75 mm to 150 mm support different pipe sizes and coverage requirements. Confirm roll length, available dimensions and packaging when requesting a quotation.
Apply PVC pipe wrap tape around suitable pipe-end sections to help limit moisture ingress during storage. Pipe-end caps or other protective coverings may be used together with the tape when additional coverage is required.
Use the tape over suitable coating-to-steel transition areas on FBE-, 3LPE- and 3LPP-coated steel pipes. This temporary wrapping helps protect exposed areas before subsequent welding or field joint coating preparation.
Use No.160 as pipeline protection tape where a conformable surface wrap is required. Confirm compatibility with the pipe material, existing coating and expected exposure conditions.
The tape provides an additional wrapping layer around suitable pipe surfaces to help reduce abrasion and moisture exposure during handling and storage.
No.160 may also be considered for floor and aisle marking. Confirm color availability, adhesion to the floor surface and expected wear conditions before use.
For pipe protection, prepare a clean, dry surface and apply the tape with a typical 50% overlap. Press firmly to improve surface contact, then inspect for gaps, lifting or damage. Follow the project specification for overlap, layer count and any additional protective coverings.
