Adhesive plastic

ADHESIVE PLASTIC FOR THREE-LAYER COVERING SYSTEM OF PIPES (3PE) provides durable adhesion between epoxy primer and outer PE protective layer. It is applied to pipes covered by epoxy primer according to the extrusion method. It has strong adhesion both to epoxy primer already solidified and to that being in the process of solidification, for instance Scotchkote 226N Slow 11G, Primer L4098, InfralitEP 8024-07, OXTEK-3 primer.
