STOP IT® BORESHIELD™
Ideal for girth weld protection, abrasion resistance and corrosion protection in directional drilling and saddle support applications

The STOP IT® BoreShield™ system includes a strong fiberglass knitted tape, pre-coated
with fast setting water-activated urethane resins. Installation simply involves wrapping
the tape around the area in need of protection. STOP IT® BoreShield™ can be installed by
one person with no special tools or hot work, and provides for quick, in-field applications,
regardless of weather conditions, pipe orientation, or local geometries. Recommended
for use on pipes up to 48 inches in diameter.
