Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) Poly Tubing protects metal components from corrosion during storage and transit. Utilising VCI technology, this packaging solution forms a protective coating on metal surfaces and impedes corrosion.
Corrosion Protection for Metals
Manufactured from a blend of Polyethylene Resin and VCI chemicals, this corrosion-protective packaging is transparent and available in multiple widths and thicknesses to adapt to different sizes of metal components. The VCI Poly Tubing needs to be heat-sealed – creating a custom-fit protective enclosure around the metal item.
The VCI chemicals in the tubing would vaporise and deposit a thin layer of corrosion inhibitors on the metal item, which offers defence against corrosive elements such as moisture, oxygen, and humidity to prevent the onset of rust or corrosion effectively.
Heat-Seal and Shrink Packaging Solution
Our VCI Poly Tubing is easy to use, and it can be easily heat-sealed and shrunk using a heat gun or shrink tunnel. With customisable lengths, our VCI Poly Tubing offers an economical and practical solution for protecting a wide range of metal parts, including machined parts, automotive components, tools, machinery, and industries requiring extended storage or transportation of metal parts or products.
