Heat Shrinkable Sleeves


Heat shrinkable sleeves for corrosion protection of water pipelines

Product Description

CANUSA Aqua-Shield™ is a family of heat shrinkable products that have been specifically designed for the corrosion protection of water pipelines. Various product configurations are available that utilize a crosslinked polyolefin backing, coated with a protective, heat activated adhesive which effectively bonds to metallic substrates and common pipeline coatings.

Features & Benefits

Once installed, Aqua-Shield™ provides durable protection against abrasion and chemical attack. The high performance crosslinked backing provides the superior abrasion resistance and mechanical strength required for water transmission and distribution lines. Aqua-Shield™ effectively covers and protects the pipe surface to prevent corrosion. Since no special primers are required, less time is required for installation.

The Aqua-Shield™ family of products are available in various configurations for flexibility of installation.

  • Aqua-Sleeve™. Patented one-piece configuration incorporates a factory applied closure strip resulting in quick and reliable field installation.
  • Aqua-Wrap™. Supplied in a bulk roll with separate closure seals, provides just-in-time customized lengths. This flexibility results in reduced inventories and cost savings on the job site.
  • High Shrink versions of these products are designed for flanges, casings, bell and spigot joints and other high profile joints along with large diameter pipes.
