The Aquapreg Composite Reinforcement System is the easily installed, cost effective solution for external pipeline remediation. The Aquapreg System consists of Aquapreg tape in conjunction with GS154 and/or GS561 proprietary load transfer/coating agents. This combination of Aquapreg products will effectively transfer the load from the corrosion pit to the composite Aquapreg sleeve, eliminating moisture and oxygen migration under the sleeve when properly applied. Repair and coating of the line is achieved in one procedure. The Aquapreg System can be applied under water by a diver without the need for a habitat in most instances.
GS154 uses dual color components that turn grey, giving visual confirmation of correct mix when ready for use. GS561 is based on a unique blend of liquid epoxy polymer and aliphatic polyamine curing agents which is able to displace water from wet surfaces in order to make a permanent bond.
Kevlar* fibers are incorporated for reinforcement and viscosity management to achieve high application rates even under water. GS561 uses advanced low toxicity curing agents with two color components that turn green, giving visual confirmation of correct mix when ready for use.
