Daubert Cromwell’s (Alsip, Ill.) new corrosion inhibitor (VCI) bearing wrap has an embossed texture that grips and stays in place around bearings and round shapes. The company says this flexible, durable bearing wrap protects metal surfaces from corrosion and damage, and is suitable for machine and hand-wrap applications.
Embossed VCI poly film is the newest corrosion inhibitor product from Daubert Cromwell. It is formulated with Premium Metal-Guard VCI, a multi-metal corrosion inhibitor proven to protect steel, cast iron, galvanized, nickel, tinplate and more.
The VCI film is recyclable, non-toxic and safe for use in the workplace. Daubert Cromwell recommends it for wrapping bearings and other components, especially when users require a solution with high-strength, stretchiness and corrosion protection. The company also says using the film in automatic packaging machines dramatically increases the speed of production output.
Daubert Cromwell also says the VCI embossed bearing tape can serve as a final wrap to hold layers of rust-inhibiting materials next to the part during long-term storage.
The VCI film is available in a range of colors, roll widths and lengths.
