PVC Roll StockStock up on your vinyl replacement rolls so you can perform quick maintenance and extend the life of your existing PVC strip curtains. |
Just because your existing strip curtains or PVC covers have some wear, rubbing down, nicks or small tears doesn't necessarily mean that you need to replace them entirely. In certain situations you can extend the life of these products by purchasing either replacement strips precut to your length, or an extra supply of roll stock and replacing the parts that require your immediate attention. There are 3 grades of PVC roll stock available:
Colored Safety Rolls: PVC safety strip is produced in two translucent colors: Safety Orange and Safety Red. Use these colors to outline hazardous areas, high traffic zones and special designated areas. Black Opaque Rolls: This PVC strip can be supplied in bulk quantities and is frequently used with conveyor systems and other applications where restricted visibility is desired. Ribbed: For work areas where PVC strips touch and rub against cargo and vehicles constantly, these softly rounded ribbed surfaces help reduce scratching, friction and static electricity build-up associated with smooth strips. The separation between adjacent strips also provides reduced wicking in high moisture environments, allowing the curtains to dry more quickly, and reducing the rate at which algae grows on the surface.
PLEASE NOTE: Determining which PVC roll stock you should use, and possibly keep in inventory, is based upon the operating temperature, air currents, and usage requirements in each application. Kingman Industries recommends having roll inventory to provide a safety margin over the temperature range required for your needs. If the strips in your work area are in continual motion through touching of product, high winds, bumps, flexing as traffic passes through or receiving abrasions, and colder temperatures are also a factor, the safety margin range is narrowed. Colder temperatures can crack or weaken PVC if it's not specially tempered for use in these extreme environments, thus selecting the appropriate cold weather PVC stock is important. Similarly, materials suitable for freezer curtains can become sticky in hot humid weather, allowing foreign materials to stick to the surface and reduce visibility through the strips, rapidly shortening their usable life.. Special formulations of PVC are available to meet the requirements of a broad range of demanding industrial and commercial applications.
