In infrastructure rehabilitation, choosing the appropriate ultraviolet light-cured, glass-reinforced pipe (UV GRP) liner is an essential step. Reline America’s Alphaliner product line includes two distinct options: the Alphaliner 500 and the Alphaliner 1800H. Both are engineered for durability and performance, but each is tailored to accommodate specific project requirements. Understanding their differences can help ensure you are selecting the ideal product for your project application.
Alphaliner 500
With a minimum thickness of 3.5 millimeters, the Alphaliner 500 is designed to work seamlessly with UV curing technology, making it an ideal choice for projects of small to medium diameter.
Despite its thin composition, the Alphaliner 500 provides excellent mechanical strength, which is perfect when moderate static and dynamic loads are expected. This combination of efficiency and durability helps the 500 meet the demands of many infrastructure rehabilitation projects.
Alphaliner 1800H
For larger-diameter pipelines or projects in areas subject to extreme static or dynamic loads, the Alphaliner 1800H offers unparalleled strength and durability. The liner’s enhanced structural integrity makes it a preferred choice for critical infrastructure projects where the highest standards of resilience and performance are required, such as pipelines subjected to heavy traffic demand like highways, runways, and railroads.
Why choose Alphaliner?
Reline America’s Alphaliner stands apart in the UV GRP industry for its exceptional strength, innovative design, and practical benefits for contractors, engineers, and asset owners. With the strongest flexural modulus ratings in the industry, Alphaliner provides unparalleled structural integrity while maintaining some of the thinnest wall thicknesses available.
Alphaliner’s thinner wall thickness translates to productivity gains for contractors and installers. A thinner liner means faster curing times, which shortens the overall time spent on site. This increased efficiency reduces the costs associated with labor, traffic control, and equipment rental. For asset owners, these time savings directly impact the bottom line. Another benefit of the Alphaliner’s thinner wall is improved flow capacity. Alphaliner also complies with ASTM F2019 specifications, providing assurance for engineers and municipalities.
Match the liner to your needs
Selecting the right liner for your project comes down to understanding the demands of your pipeline and aligning them with the strengths of the Alphaliner 500 or 1800H.
