The PowerMatrix™ grade is selected for your application type. We used custom formulations that give our product exceptional properties of flexibility, adhesion, toughness, chemical resistance, thermal resistance, vibration, etc. Special grades are available to handle special situations.

PowerSleeve^® Kits ship to field with all components pre-measured and factory sealed. Everything is included: PowerSleeve^® Fabric, PowerMatrix™, primer, stirring sticks, Stricture Banding™, paint, safety glasses, wipes, etc. The technician simply lays out a pre-measured fiber reinforcement segment, mixes the pre-measured resin components (with the furnished mixing stick) and applies the resin to the reinforcement. No measuring is required in the field and performance tolerances are tightened with controlled fabric/matrix ratios. Powersleeve^® Brochure

Matrix Systems

Standard Matrix
A two-component, ambient temperature matrix used in our PowerSleeve^® composite reinforcement products. This ambient temperature cure matrix wets out easily and can be applied to our PowerSleeve^® W-11 and G-03 Fabrics. It is relatively fast setting, approximately 30 minutes @77° F and is used where a maximum service temperature of 180° F is desired. No VOC’s, 100% solids. This product ships DOT non-hazardous. Technical Data Sheet.

439 Matrix
A two-component, medium temperature matrix used in our PowerSleeve^® composite reinforcement products. This ambient temperature cure matrix wets out easily and can be applied to our PowerSleeve^® W-11 and G-03 Fabrics. It is relatively fast setting, approximately 60 minutes @77° F and is used where a maximum service temperature of 300° F is desired. Intermittent excursions to 325° F can also be tolerated. The color will change from a mild yellow to dark amber when temperatures rise above 140° F. This product ships DOT hazardous (corrosive). Technical Data Sheet.

70079 Matrix
Type 70079 Matrix is a premium quality, two-component, novolac-epoxy hybrid system with excellent exposure resistance to most military and civilian fuels and a vast array of chemicals. This product is used as a composite matrix where its fuel and chemical performances are required. It is very resistant to moisture and humidity effects. It will cure in high humidity conditions. This product contains no solvents, is 100% solids, and contains zero VOC’s. This product ships as non-hazardous.
Technical Data Sheet.

X-TEMP-2
A two-component, heat and chemical resistant matrix used in our PowerSleeve^® composite reinforcement products. This elevated temperature cure matrix wets out easily and can be applied to our PowerSleeve^® W-11, G- 03, C-2 carbon and our highly conformable BearTM Fabrics. To achieve its ultimate chemical resistance properties requires post cure per the instruction sheet. It is relatively fast setting, approximately 80 minutes at the minimum application temperature of 150° F. Designed for use where maximum service temperature of 450° F is desired. This product must be post cured in order to achieve the best chemical resistance properties. The color will be dark amber when temperatures rise above 200° F. This product ships DOT hazardous (corrosive). Technical Data Sheet.
