FlexiShape Miko Plaster
The FlexiShape Miko Plaster® is intended for temporary and quick repair of hull damages from groundings or collisions. It is fastened to the hull by using the Miko Marine MIKO FIX “Smart Underwater Fixing”.
The outer layer is a polyester-reinforced PVC matting, strong enough to carry the weight of an average car with a 50 mm wide stripe. The inner layer is a Kevlar fabric, similar to bullet proof vests, which protects the patch from sharp edges on the damaged hull. The material is flexible to follow the hull curvatures. The rubber stripes along the edges help improve the seal when pressed against the hull surface by the MIKO FIX Miko Bolts.
The patches are produced in Norway and standard sizes can delivered quickly to site in in urgent situations. Standard sizes are available in the Salvage Kit together with supplementary tools for installation. Customized patches are supplied in any shape and size.
