Project summary:

Inspectors at a steel manufacturing facility found signs of significant external corrosion on a two-inch diameter steam pipe. Advanced FRP provided a solution where a three foot section would be grit blasted and wrapped with 6 layers of a high-strength carbon fiber reinforcement system. The high temperature resin has a Tg of over 400°F and can withstand continuous service up to 375°F while preventing any external corrosion to the pipe.
