Industrial Grade Corrosion Protection
PVC coated tubing is an absolute necessity in many industries where corrosion and moving
mechanical parts can damage standard electrical system wiring. PVC conduit and fittings
were the accepted way of protecting these systems from failure, but it was soon
discovered that although the wiring was protected the conduit would not last as long as
it should resulting in higher repair costs, lost of production and increased safety
concerns. This opened the door for manufacturers to research newer more efficient ways
of meeting the consumer's needs. PVC coated tubing turned out to be the answer, but
perfecting the process has been a long road.

Perma-Cote has taken the lead in this industry with their patented and revolutionary
system for preparing and applying the PVC to the conduit and fittings. Their process
allows for greater adherence to the metal as well as superior protection from corrosion. The
UltraBond system uses a mixture of chemicals to strip the metal clean of any impurities that
might hinder adhesion of the PVC. A special zinc coating is also applied along with the PVC
which gives the PVC coated tubing its superior corrosion protection. The conduit was also
put through a rigorous course of testing to evaluate its predicted life cycle. This will give
an indication as to how long the products can be expected to last. Obviously when it lasts
longer the electrical system will function longer allowing for consistent production for the
consumer. Having this ETL performance verification is very important in the marketing
of the product.
The UltraBond adhesion process that Perma-Cote uses on all of its products is what
allows the PVC coated tubing to withstand such harsh working environments. The adhesion
of the PVC to the metal conduit is so strong that when tested the coating would break
away from itself before it could be pulled from the metal. Customers using the products
do not have to worry about proper installation either. The company asked engineers to
design special tools made specifically to work with their PVC coated tubing
and fittings. The use of these tools will ensure a fast and safe installation for
any application. Installers even have the option to attend a certification class
conducted by Perma-Cote where they are instructed in the proper handling of the
products and tools. If the installation must be performed with standard tools
the company offers literature with tips on how to modify the tools to handle the
product safely. Having such a unique product followed by true customer service
is what has allowed Perma-Cote to take the lead over the competition.
