A composite material comprises: an open grid comprising at least two sets of strands. Each set of strands has openings between adjacent strands. The sets are oriented at a substantial angle to one another. A tack film is laminated to the open grid. The tack film has first and second major surfaces, such that a material of the tack film at its first and second major surfaces is a material including about 50% or more of resinous non-asphaltic component and about 50% or less of asphaltic component.

Inversion liners are provided which in a first embodiment include first and second flexible fabric layers joined to first and second high strength fiber containing layers and joined in tubular form. The first and second flexible fabric layers face one another. The second glass fiber containing layer further is bonded to a thin, third flexible fabric layer. A substantially fluid impermeable layer is applied to the opposite side of the thin, third flexible fabric layer.

Inversion liner and liner components for conduits

Inversion liners are provided which in a first embodiment include first and second flexible fabric layers separated by one or more glass fiber containing layers and joined in tubular form. The second flexible fabric layer further is bonded to a third flexible fabric layer comprising a substantially fluid impermeable layer. An invertible glass-faced liner is also provided by this invention which includes a glass facing on one side and a substantially fluid impermeable layer on the other. The substantially fluid impermeable layer is joined to a flexible fabric layer which is preferably heat bonded to a thin veil joined to a second glass containing layer of this liner embodiment. The inversion liners of this invention can be built-up in multiple layers or blocks to meet end-use design demands while still providing flexural moduli in excess of 500 ksi, preferably about 700-800 ksi.

Inversion liners are provided which in a first embodiment include first and second flexible fabric layers joined to first and second glass fiber containing layers and joined in tubular form, whereby the first and second flexible fabric layers face one another. The second glass fiber containing layer further is bonded to a thin, third flexible fabric layer. A substantially fluid impermeable layer is applied to the opposite side of the thin, third flexible fabric layer. This method and liner construction can save one or more steps in the manufacture of glass-reinforced, polyester felt liners.
