  • Expert Technical Support
StrongBack is the world’s leading composite reinforcement system consisting of water-activated, resin-impregnated glass fibre tape.

This simple, cost-effective, and proven solution is the preferred choice of experienced engineers and is in use in many critical industries.

StrongBack’s versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications on land, in the splash zone and underwater.
NO HOT WORK – NO SHUTDOWN
EASY UNDERWATER APPLICATION
FORGIVING APPLICATION IN ADVERSE FIELD CONDITIONS
FAST APPLICATION
NON-HAZMAT,FAST-SHIPPED BY COMMERCIAL AIR ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
Speed and Simplicity A StrongBack repair can be achieved in a few simple steps and without the need for special tools or extensive training. Both StrongBack compounds are applied with common putty knives or straightedge glue spreaders, and mixing ratios are very “forgiving.” StrongBack is ideal for installation in adverse field conditions where less-than-perfect surface preparation is prevalent.

Strength and Longevity
The StrongBack system was designed specifically to repair and reinforce very high-pressure vessels.

StrongBack’s proprietary design transfers the hoop stresses from the damaged pipeline to the composite StrongBack sleeve.
Extensive creep testing has shown that the long-term (25 year) load carrying capacity of StrongBack tape is in excess of 50% of its static strength.

Extrapolated test data suggests an effective life of 50 years or more.
PIPE REPAIR
MasterWrap’s high adhesive and structural strength retains pressure on many line types including steam, water, air, freon, oil, gasoline, hydraulic fluid, and many other chemicals. MasterWrap adheres to PVC, metal, rubber, fiberglass, plastic and most other materials.

PIPE REINFORCEMENT
MasterWrap effectively creates a second pipe which encapsulates the existing, compromised pipe. Eight wraps of MasterWrap will yield a tensile strength of approximately 35,000 PSI.

CORROSION PREVENTION
MasterWrap creates an effective corrosion prevention barrier, protecting the pipe from virtually any corrosive atmosphere, sealing out oxygen that would promote corrosion.

ABRASION PROTECTION
MasterWrap creates a hard barrier around the pipe, protecting it from impact, erosion, weather, and vandalism.

DIELECTRIC PROTECTION
Is nonconductive up to 16,000 volts in its cured state. It can be used to cover and insulate electrical connections and apparatus.

GENERAL REPAIR
MasterWrap can be used for a wide range of repairs including railings, fences, pipe hangers, antennas, braces, clamps, couplings, castings, flexible hoses, HVAC ducts and flues, and plugging large holes.
