ArmorDillo® Equipment Covers
Protect your industrial equipment from corrosion with Transhield custom covers made with ArmorDillo. This water-resistant fabric uses patented Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI) technology, which releases VCI in vapor form to create a protective barrier on metal surfaces. This barrier disrupts the electro-chemical reaction that causes corrosion, keeping your equipment safe during storage. ArmorDillo heavy-duty covers are built for daily on/off use in any industrial setting and can be customized with exterior graphics for easy identification. Like all Transhield solutions, ArmorDillo covers are proudly made in the U.S.A.
Ease of Use
Our technology simplifies protection and installation. Just 1-2 people can install Transhield covers with ease, reducing labor hours and simplifying your maintenance routine.
Saves Time
Faster installation means reduced maintenance hours and less time spent cleaning equipment. Spend less time on setup and more time focused on your operations.
Water Resistant
Water-resistant fabric keeps interiors dry, significantly reducing the risk of corrosion and water damage even in heavy rain conditions.
Soft Interior
Protects Class A surfaces with a soft nonwoven layer that prevents scratches and pulls moisture away from your equipment.
UV Protection
Reduces UV damage, protecting rubber components, slowing paint wear, and preventing glass delamination over time.
Anti-Condensating
The nonwoven layer wicks moisture away, preventing condensation and mold growth under the cover.
Protects from Environmental Degradation
Stands up to UV rays, rain, snow, dust, wind, and pollutants, reducing cleaning time and keeps your equipment in top condition.
Customizable Features
Incorporates vents, zipper doors, hook and loop fasteners, flaps, labeling, and ratchets to enhance ergonomics and accessibility for your specific needs.
Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI)
Patented VCI technology forms a protective barrier on metal, inhibiting corrosion by 85%-95% for long-lasting protection.
Breathable
A polyurethane layer lets water vapor evaporate, preventing moisture buildup and corrosion while your equipment stays covered.
