Syntho-Glass®
The original, patented fiberglass pre-impregnated composite that is activated by salt or freshwater.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
Syntho-Glass® is the original, patented fiberglass pre-impregnated composite that is activated by salt or freshwater. Packaged in a hermetically sealed foil pouch, it is ready to use and does not require any measuring or mixing. This system, when used with the appropriate primary patch, enables you to repair and reinforce virtually any diameter pipe in minutes. Syntho-Glass not only restores a
pipe to its original psi rating, but actually can make the repair area stronger than the original pipe, plus it reduces downtime, saving you thousands in parts and labor. With an initial setting time of only 30 minutes (75°F/24°C), Syntho-Glass is excellent on copper, steel, SS, PVC, FRP, clay, concrete, rubber, and more. It is safe to use, nontoxic, noncombustible, and odorless. Syntho-Glass is a versatile solution for industries where quick-action repair can be critical.
