Product Details Tyfo® UC
Composite Laminate Strip System
using Tyfo® S Epoxy
DESCRIPTION
Tyfo® UC Composite Laminate Strip System
is comprised of a high modulus, high tensile
strength, pull-formed, epoxy-carbon composite
adhered to the primed substrate by a layer of
Tyfo® TC Epoxy.
USE
For post-reinforcing of general building construction, industrial buildings, parking structures,
bridges and other structures constructed of concrete, wood and steel.
ADVANTAGES
• Good high temperature properties
• Good low temperature properties
• Consistent material properties
• Ease of installation
• Pull-formed composites do not contain releasing agents that affect material properties
• High tensile modulus and strength
• 100% epoxy matrix
