FRP pipe is a non-metallic pipe with light weight, high strength and corrosion resistance. It is a glass fiber with a resin-based weight that is wound layer by layer on a rotating core mold according to the process requirements, and silica sand is evenly spread between the fibers as a sand layer at a long distance. Under the premise of meeting the strength of use, the rigidity is improved, and the stability and reliability of the pipeline are guaranteed.
FRP sand pipes have excellent chemical resistance, light weight, high strength, no scaling, and strong shock resistance. Compared with ordinary steel pipes, they have a long service life. Many projects now use FRP pipes for laying. However, once the FRP pipes are damaged, Repairing has become a headache. Recently, many people have asked me how to repair FRP pipes. Here we will talk about the common repair methods of FRP pipes.

1-Replacing Pipes
We can cut off the damaged part of the pipe, replace it with a new pipe and connect it with a flange or pipe connector. This method is more time-consuming and costly to repair.
2-Gluing
This is a commonly used repair method now. It uses epoxy resin, curing agent, accelerator, etc. and glass fiber cloth for repeated application and repair. The advantage of this method is lower cost, but the disadvantages are also obvious. We need to make our own glue. , And need 2-7 days to cool and dry, during this period the pipeline can not be used normally.
3-Ametek Pipe Band Repair Clamp
It is designed and developed by Xiamen Ametek Technology Co.,Ltd. It uses a 304 stainless steel shell with a built-in grid rubber sheet. It is sealed by grid layers to stop leaks and needs to be wrapped when repairing at the leakage point, then tighten the bolt. The advantage is that it can quickly plug the leak under pressure (a DN200 pipe can be repaired in about 10 minutes). For slightly deformed FRP pipes, it can change with the shape and closely adhere to the pipe wall. It is a flexible pipe connection tool. It is a good way to repair pipelines that cannot be stopped.
