Viper-Skin™
CARBON FIBER STRUCTURAL REPAIR SYSTEM
Viper-Skin™ is the first bi-axial, hybrid carbon and glass fiber polyurethane pre-impregnated system that blends the unsurpassed strength and stiffness of carbon with the ease and use of a moisture-cured, factory-saturated fiber.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
- Transmission and distribution pipelines
- Oil and gas risers
- Mechanical dents and defects
- Girth welds on vessels and pipelines
- Straights, elbows, tees, and flanges
- Process piping: chemicals, oil, gases, water, and steam
BENEFITS
- Moisture-cured polyurethane resin reduces composite preparation time by over 50%
- Factory-saturation optimizes fiber to resin ratio and provides a material with a constant strength property
- Non-shielding
- Can be applied to damp, sweating, or immersed surfaces
- No heating or post-curing required
- Can be applied to any geometry including, but not limited to elbows, Tees, and flanges
- Design conforms to ASME PCC-2, ASME B31, ISO TS 24817, DOT, API, and CSA Z662 standards for nonmetallic reinforcing solutions
