Corrosion Protection Products

STOPAQ Subsea Compound

STOPAQ Subsea Compound
is a compound suited for corrosion protection of steel objects fully or partial submerged in water.


PRODUCT INFORMATION
STOPAQ Subsea Compound is a compound suited for corrosion protection of steel objects fully or partial submerged in water. The compound is always viscous at temperatures of use: -20°C up to + 35°C and therefore flows into all irregularities on the substrate surface. The compound does not cure and is unable to build-up internal stresses. The Subsea Compound has no mechanical resistance and therefore always need to be covered with a mechanical protective layer such as Syntho-Glass® or Syntho-Glass® XT.

Typical Applications

STOPAQ FN 4200 is suitable for coating above ground flange plates having thermal deformations and gives applicators an opportunity to coat uneven, non-cleaned or hard to access surfaces. When applied STOPAQ® FN 4200 does not flow from vertical and inclined surfaces.

Splashzone Protection
The STOPAQ® Subsea Compound is suited for the protection of steel Jetty Piles to protect against corrosion below water level and splash zone.
Sheet Pile Protection
The STOPAQ® Subsea Compound is suited for the protection of submerged sheet piles against corrosion.
Concrete Protection
The STOPAQ® Subsea Compound is suited for the protection of submerged concrete object to avoid water absorption generating corrosion on the reinforcement.
Generic Type

Non crosslinked, non toxic, single component, water- and gas tight synthetic polyolefin compound for underwater applications. Adheres on dry and wet surfaces of steel, concrete, brick, PVC and others. No primer needed, does not cure, but remains permanently flexible.


Features
