Overview

The StrongPIPE® V-Wrap™ Carbon Fiber System is a structural strengthening system for the restoration and renewal of pipelines. Crafted with high-strength carbon fibers fully immersed in a 2-part 100% solids epoxy matrix, this technology significantly extends the service life of pipelines. An adaptable system, V-Wrap™ accommodates a diverse range of pipe diameters and materials with minimal disruption to operations.

 

Features

  • Custom-designed to address all internal pressure and external loads
  • Low profile system (typically 3/8-inch to 1-inch)
  • Long-term lifecycle extension of pipeline assets
  • Segmental repairs or extended reaches of pipe
  • Adaptable for all geometry (straight and curved)
  • Restores full functional capacity
  • NSF 61 and Annex G certified for drinking water pipelines
  • ICC-ES approved – meeting or exceeding industry standards for long-term durability
  • No excavation needed
  • Minimal downtime and impact to operation
