Applications //
Generally, STOP IT® may be used with products that are compatible with polyurethane plastic. The end user must always determine the suitability of the product for its intended use and recognize that the durability of the repair may be affected by strong acids or bases.
Chemical Resistance //
No visible changes in STOP IT® after an immersion term of 35 days in the following chemicals: Acetic Anhydride, Ammonia, Ammonium Hydroxide (10%), Diesel Fuel, Ethylene Glycol, Gasoline, Hydrochloric Acid (10%), Lube Oil, Mineral, Spirits, Sodium Hydroxide (50%), Sulfuric Acid (10%), Sulfuric Acid (25%), Varsol.
Safety Features //
Even under extreme pressures, the STOP IT® Pipe Repair Tape will not shatter or crack. STOP IT® releases pressures slowly. When tested to the failing point in laboratory conditions failure was indicated by a reduction in line pressure and seepage.
