CHEMICAL RISK TAPE "CHEMTAPE® CT54"

Uses and use: Provides a guarantee of additional protection by sealing the joints between the chemical protective clothing and the safety shoes or gloves, preventing the entry of chemicals between the joints, such as, for example, hood-mask, and between the zippers and flaps. In addition, it can be used when sealing and / or containment of spills is required, as well as for repair or sealing in general, where additional chemical protection is needed.

Measurements: 48 mm wide x 55 meters long.

* The above table indicates the permeation detection time (1) for a given chemical compound with a rate of 0.1 µg / (cm2 ∙ min). These test results have been obtained according to the American standard ASTM F-739. The European test standard EN ISO 6529 allows a choice between two permeation rates, 0.1 µg / (cm2 ∙ min) and 1.0 µg / (cm2 ∙ min), the most restrictive being the one tested by the American standard by requiring the lower permeation rate.

(1) Permeation: The process by which a chemical passes through a material at the molecular level.
