VCI Film / Sheet / Tube
Co-extruded, latest-polymer-technology VCI film, sheet and tube for wrapping and shrinking around metal parts.
Overview
VCI Films and Tubes are made with the latest polymer technology, giving maximum strength, flexibility and puncture resistance for aggressive packaging applications. The film is impregnated at low temperature with vapor corrosion inhibitors to protect ferrous and most non-ferrous metals. The slow-release vapor action protects the exterior as well as hard-to-reach interior surfaces, is self-healing, and provides 24 months of long-term protection for storage and overseas shipments. When shrunk around a metal object, the active VCI volatilizes and migrates with air, condensing on all metal surfaces — reaching exposed and recessed areas alike.
Key Features
- Versatile, cost-effective packaging solution
- Strong yet flexible, with excellent corrosion protection and tamper-proof packaging
- Transparent, suitable for product identification in export shipments
- Relatively inexpensive — ideal for low-cost packaging solutions
