Product Profile of Thin Flexible Fiberglass Pipe Wrap

Thin Flexible Fiberglass Pipe Wrap is composed of glass fibres in an open porous structure, bonded with phenolic binder that is compatible with hot coal-tar enamel. The Pipe Wrap can be mechanically applied by continuous end feed machine or by a lathe-type machine or by other approved application equipment. The Pipe Wrap is chemical resistant and chemically stable in nature and has high tensile strength. Thin Flexible Fiberglass Pipe Wrap is non biodegradable and does not rot and decay.

Key Features of Thin Flexible Fiberglass Pipe Wrap

• Open porous structure can be easily impregnated, uniform coating (single homogeneous unit)
• High tensile strength/ breaking tear strength
• Resistant to longitudinal/ transverse tension, provides reinforcement, protection from mechanical damage due to strain on pipe during handling - laying, commissioning & operation, withstand pressure due to soil movement, cold bending etc
• Chemical Resistant (Inert) Chemically stable, compatible with anticorrosive chemicals / coal tar and bitumen, resist degradation from corrosion electrolyte, unaffected by weather agents, withstand attack from bacteria, chemicals contained in soil, no mould growth
• High temperature resistance/ tolerance - thermally stable, stable up to 288 degree C, can be used in both hot & cold application, unaffected under load in hot bitumen at 288 degree C, structural, composition stability
• Inorganic composition non biodegradable does not rot and decay
• Hydrophobic does not absorb moisture, when applied with coal tar, it is impermeable to water
• Fire properties Non inflammable (phenolic resin), reduce fire hazards
