Fernco Inc FPW248CS Pipe Repair Wrap 2x48 Fiberglass 600 Psi

Product Description

The FERNCO INC FPW248CS is a water-activated fiberglass pipe repair wrap designed for fast, field-ready repairs on damaged or leaking pipe sections. Measuring 2 inches wide by 48 inches long, this wrap sets to a rigid, steel-like hardness and delivers up to 600 psi of compressive strength once fully cured. Cure time is approximately 30 minutes, making it suitable for time-sensitive repairs across a wide range of pipe materials. No tools are required for application, and the wrap bonds to pipe diameters up to 1 inch. It carries EPZ approval and meets ANSI/NSF 61 certification for contact with potable water systems.

This wrap is used in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where a quick, durable pipe repair is needed without full pipe replacement. Typical scenarios include pinhole leaks, hairline cracks, and minor pipe damage on supply lines, drain lines, or irrigation piping. The water-activated cure mechanism means the wrap is activated on-site with no mixing, no adhesives, and no specialty tools, making it practical for plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians working in tight or remote locations.
