The Premier™ Butyl Tape System is designed to protect pipeline field joints from corrosion. The system covers the weld area and existing pipe coating on each side.

The system comprises a coat of Premier Butyl P16HT™ Primer followed by a spirally wrapped double layer of Premier S43™ Innerwrap and then a spirally wrapped double layer of Premier R23™ Outerwrap. Premier Butyl Mastic™ is also used to fill voids and smooth profiles before the tape wrapping commences.
