Project Details
Engineers in charge of the Ohmishima Great Bridge that crosses the Setonaikai Inland Sea in Japan, wanted to protect the base of the 160 bridge suspension cables against corrosion.
A Denso™ Petrolatum Tape system was chosen comprising Densyl™ Mastic Strips then a coating of Denso Paste™ over-wrapped with Densyl KF™ Tape with a final outer layer of Denso PVC Self-Adhesive Tape™ to protect against mechanical damage.
A coating of Denso Paste™ is applied over the Densyl Mastic Strips™ and cable strands
Densyl KF™ Tape is spiraly wrapped with a 55% overlap
