Premium 20 mil corrosion protection tape

3M Scotchrap 51 is a 20 mil thick PVC-backed tape designed for corrosion control on metal piping, conduits and fittings. The pressure-sensitive rubber adhesive delivers high tack and conforms to irregular surfaces. It is supplied in a 1 in by 100 ft black roll with printing. RoHS 2011/65/EU compliant.

Temperature and environmental limits

The tape withstands continuous exposure from 55 to 176 °F (48 to 80 °C). It resists UV radiation, salt water, soil acids, alkalis, salts and a range of chemicals. These properties allow use both above and below ground on straight runs and field joints of mill-coated pipe.

20 mil thickness decides fit

The 20 mil PVC backing provides the mechanical strength and electrical insulation needed for direct-burial and exposed pipe protection. Thinner tapes will not deliver the same abrasion, puncture and impact resistance. Buyers needing a lighter wrap for temporary marking or bundling should choose a different product.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 20 mil thickness or a thinner option for buried pipe?

The 20 mil PVC backing gives the mechanical strength and abrasion resistance needed for direct burial and field joints on mill coated pipes.

What does the 55 to 176 °F range mean once the tape is wrapped on pipe?

It stays flexible and keeps adhesion from 48 to 80 °C, so seasonal ground temperature swings will not cause lifting or cracking.

Does the RoHS 2011/65/EU listing cap any restricted substances in the adhesive?

Yes, the tape meets RoHS 2011/65/EU limits for lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBB and PBDE in all components.
