Oatey GCB-001 Blue Pipe Sleeve Guard 200 Feet

Product Description

The OATEY GCB-001 is a blue pipe sleeve guard supplied in a 200-foot roll, designed to protect exposed piping from physical damage, abrasion, and UV exposure in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. The sleeve slips over pipe runs to provide a durable protective barrier in areas where pipes pass through framing, walls, or other structural elements. Plumbers and pipe fitters typically install this product during rough-in or when retrofitting pipe protection in occupied structures. The blue color aids visual identification of specific pipe lines on the job site.

This pipe guard sleeve is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where pipe protection is required at penetrations, framing notches, or along exposed runs. The 200-foot roll format reduces mid-job material changes and is practical for larger projects or multi-unit installations. It is commonly installed by licensed plumbers following local plumbing code requirements for pipe protection at structural members.

Key Features

• 200-foot roll provides extended coverage with fewer material changes
• Blue color supports easy visual identification of protected pipe lines
• Designed to protect piping from abrasion, physical damage, and contact with structural materials
• Flexible sleeve format allows straightforward installation over existing pipe runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style protective sleeve for use with standard residential and light commercial plumbing pipe installations where pipe guard protection is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber during rough-in or retrofit work. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before working on any pipe section that requires repositioning. Follow local plumbing code and IPC guidelines for pipe protection requirements at structural penetrations and framing notches. Avoid stretching the sleeve beyond its natural fit, as this can reduce protective coverage.
