AWWA C214-20 Machine-Applied Polyolefin Tape Coatings for Steel Water Pipe (PDF)
SKU: 43214-2020-PDF
This standard describes the materials and application of prefabricated polyolefin tape coating systems in coating plants at fixed sites using coating techniques and equipment as recommended by the tape coating manufacturer. For normal construction considerations, tape coatings are applied as a three-layer system consisting of (1) liquid adhesive, (2) corrosion-preventive tape (inner layer), and (3) mechanical-protective tape (outer layer). This standard establishes the minimum requirements for tape coating systems used on the exterior of steel water pipes.
Description
