Fibreglass Tape – For Making Composite Repairs

Sylmasta Fibreglass Tape

Sylmasta Fibreglass Tape is a versatile, high-strength repair material used with epoxy resin to create durable composite repairs for pipes and tanks. Its open-weave design allows for easy resin saturation and molding around complex shapes, making it an ideal alternative to composite repair bandages in confined spaces or on pipe joints.

Key Features & Benefits

✔ High-Strength Composite Repair – Reinforces pipes, tanks, and surfaces when combined with epoxy resin.
✔ Corrosion & Chemical Resistant – Protects pipes from pitting, rust, and chemical damage.
✔ Versatile Application – Wraps around complex pipe geometries, joints, and fittings.
✔ Customizable Length & Width – Available in 50mm to 150mm widths on 50m rolls for multiple repairs.
✔ Easy to Cut & Apply – Can be wrapped around pipes or pressed into epoxy for patch repairs.

Ideal Applications

• Composite repair bandages when coated with epoxy resin
• Steel, iron, copper, PVC & GRP pipe repairs
• Patch repairs on complex pipe shapes & tanks
• Protecting pipelines from corrosion & wear

How to Use Sylmasta Fibreglass Tape

1. Surface Preparation – Clean and roughen the surface for optimal adhesion.
2. Apply Epoxy Resin – Coat the repair area with Sylmasta E190 Brushable Epoxy or an equivalent resin.
3. Wrap the Tape –
   • Standard Repair: Wrap the epoxy-coated area with Fibreglass Tape, then apply another layer of epoxy.
   • Confined Spaces: Cut strips of Tape and press them into the epoxy rather than wrapping.
   • Patch Repairs: Brush epoxy directly onto the Tape, then apply it to the pipe or tank surface.
4. Layering Process – Continue alternating epoxy and Fibreglass Tape layers until the repair is complete.
5. Final Curing –
   • Work Time: 30 minutes
   • Hard Dry: 16 hours
   • Full Cure: 24 hours

💡 How much Tape is needed? The required Tape length is three times the pipe diameter per wrap layer (e.g., a 150mm pipe with five layers needs 2250mm of Tape).

All-in-One Repair Kit Available

For multiple repairs, the Fibreglass Repair Kit includes three packs of E190 Brushable Epoxy and the largest roll of Fibreglass Tape.
