4 in. Dia Oak Cap and Base Set

A:  No, we can't use it outdoors

A:  Although you should also consider vinyl and PVC products, Pole-Wrap can be used for outdoor applications. But, like any other wood product, you must first carefully caulk around the edges and apply an oil based primer. You can then use either oil based or latex paint for your finishing coat(s). Be sure to use all exterior grade products to adequately protect the wood from weather. If you prefer a clear finish to show off the rich wood grain, use clear caulking and simply apply a couple coats of an oil based polyurethane.

A:  All Pole-Wrap products are unfinished natural hardwood or MDF. The hardwoods are easily finished with two coats of polyurethane, but can also be stained or painted to match your decor exactly. Our MDF products should be primed with an oil, alcohol or lacquer based primer before applying a paint finish which can be latex if you choose. If you are going to color paint our hardwood products, any quality brand primer, water based latex, oil based or otherwise, will perform well.

A:  Got this off of Pole-Wrap website: The excessive heat from a steam or heating pipe might damage Pole-Wrap if some type of insulation or heat shield isn't installed first. Also, you need to consider that this pipe may provide heat to maintain a comfortable room temperature. If so, you can build a heat shield around the visible portion of the pipe leaving the backside exposed for heat radiation. You would then cover the heat shield with Pole-Wrap.

A:  This is not made to be installed over a heat pipe. This is to be wrapped around a lally column in your basement, instead of boxing it out using either pine or sheetrock.

A:  Yes. We had to trim ours to fit a 2.5" pipe. No problem.

A:  have a look at this: https://polewrap.com/page/6/pole-wrap

A:  The inside diameter of our 4 in. size Cap and Base Set is actually 4.5 in. to allow for the thickness of our Wrap (Cap and Base is normally installed over the Wrap). So, in your case, when you apply Pole-Wrap, you may need to cut the Wrap length shorter (exactly 2-1/4 in.) to fit your PVC pipe length above the top of the Base and below the bottom of the Cap.

A:  Yes , and if the base and cap doesn’t fit after installing the wrap , install it before

A:  I seriously doubt it. I think 3.5" is maximum, if it will fit that. Sorry
