Cortec VpCI®-150 / VpCI®-170 Adhesive Backed Foam Tape

Product Description

VpCI®-150 and VpCI®-170 patented foam tapes protect metal in enclosed spaces from corrosion. Effective in control boxes or cabinets to protect sensitive electronic components; VpCI®-150 and 170 offer low maintenance protection during operation, shipping, or storage. Not only do these unique tapes provide Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor protection, but they also provide antistatic protection under military specification MIL-B-81705C.

Cortec® VpCI® products prevent corrosion through their unique Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitor action. VpCIs adsorb on to metal surfaces creating a molecular layer of protection. VpCI®-150 and 170 are effective against a variety of corrosive agents including salt, airborne contaminants, H2S, SO2, NH3, and others.
