The gap between tank bases and the concrete plinth it sits on is a area subject to premature corrosion from moisture and chemical ingress. Many companies are starting to appreciate the need to seal this gap to limit corrosion and potential environmental issues.

NXT Group’s boot seal system encapsulates the gap with a tough, flexible polyurea bandage providing a long-term protection solution.

The concrete and steel is firstly abrasive blasted and NXT Group EP Prime 2 high solids epoxy primer is applied.

NXT Group Pure Polyurea is then applied at 2mm nominal thickness extending approximately 200mm above and below the flange joint.

NXT Group is widely used in the mining industry as a tough, abrasion resistant, impermeable membrane with fast return to service.
