Product Description

Product Description

ICT® Tube Strip VCI emitter tubing is quick and easy to install. At first, simply trim the Tube Strip to the desired length. Next, insert it inside the tube or pipe, and then cap the ends tightly to trap the protective vapors inside.

Tube Strip diffuses invisible, odorless, and non-toxic ZERUST® VCI molecules. As a result, these VCI molecules settle onto exposed metal surfaces inside the tube or pipe. Furthermore, removal is quick, uncap the pipe or tube and remove the Tube Strip. Once removed from the pipe or tube, the VCI will dissipate from the metal surfaces, allowing the pipe/tube to be immediately put to use or further processing. Tube Strip protects ferrous metal tubes, pipes, and gun barrels up to 2 inches in diameter from corrosion for up to 2 years during storage and shipping. Additionally, use Tube Strips with ZERUST® rust preventative liquids and VCI packaging, such as ICT® weapon bags, for additional long-term storage protection.
