Field Demonstration: Thick Coating Systems

10X Superoxalloy Cuts Through Pipe Wrap

This video shows an abrasive blast removing two different pipe wrap systems with 10X superoxalloy abrasive at 100PSI. Pipe wrap systems are used to repair pipes where painting is either not possible or not sufficient. The first system shown is a composite wrap system similar to a cast on a broken bone. The second system (the one wrapped in black tape) is a permanently soft adhesive called VISCOTAQ. Both are very difficult to remove, but the VISCOTAQ even more so, given its non-rigid nature. Before trying 10X, the customer had no efficient way to remove this coating system. This video shows how effective 10X superoxalloy abrasives are at removing both wrap systems.
