"BioWrap 102 gave us a sustainable repair option without compromising on the performance we need for high-pressure pipeline systems. The ambient cure was a game-changer for our remote site operations."

High heat. Helios 158 solves the challenge of high-temperature repair in hot climates. With a Tg of 158°C, it withstands sustained industrial heat yet cures entirely at ambient temperatures—eliminating the need for external heater blankets. It is the ideal solution for deserts and remote locations where simplified application is critical.
High-Temperature Stability: Tg of 158°C for pipelines exposed to elevated heat.
Optimized for Hot Climates: Cures at ambient temps (25°C+), perfect for deserts.
Ambient Curing: No external heat source required, unlike most high-temp epoxies.
Quad-axial Reinforcement: Uses 0°/90°/+45°/-45° fibre alignment for max hoop strength.
Versatile Protection: Excellent for corrosion under insulation (CUI) and structural repair.
At Icarus Composites, we make sure to test our Composite Materials to the most stringent industrial standards ensuring we deliver the highest quality composite pipe and tank repairs possible.
Our Composite Systems are qualified to both ISO 24817 & ASME PCC-2 to make sure they meet the requirements of both international standards.
Glass transition temperature of 158°C allows continuous operation at up to 138°C—ideal for high-temp process lines and hot climate installations.
Unlike most high-temperature epoxies, Helios 158 cures at ambient temperatures ≥25°C, eliminating the need for external heat sources in remote or desert locations.
5-6 hour pot life at 25°C gives applicators ample time to complete complex repairs without rushing, even in challenging hot-climate conditions.
Helios 158 is specifically engineered for environments where traditional high-temp composites fail. It cures entirely at ambient temperatures ≥25°C while still achieving a Tg of 158°C—no heater blankets, no external power, no complications.
Helios 158's pot life of 5-6 hours at 25°C gives applicators ample time to complete complex repairs without rushing. The system gels in 10-14 hours and demoulds in 24 hours.
Independently tested at a UKAS-accredited lab, Helios 158 handles extreme pressures: up to 327 bar on non-leaking defects and 229 bar on leaking defects.
While Helios 158 cures at ambient, an optional stepped post-cure cycle (40°C to 160°C) unlocks the full Tg of 158°C for the most demanding thermal applications.
Reinforce thermally stressed components in refineries, petrochemical plants, power generation.
Operating temperature up to 138°C for process lines exposed to sustained heat.
Cures at ambient ≥25°C with no heater blankets — ideal for desert and tropical environments.
Excellent for CUI repairs requiring high thermal stability and long-term corrosion resistance.
Up to 20 years per ISO 24817 / ASME PCC-2.
No — cures at ambient ≥25°C. Optional post-cure (40°C→160°C) unlocks full Tg of 158°C.
Quad axial E-glass (0°/90°/+45°/−45°) for maximum hoop strength.
Pot life: 5–6 hours @ 25°C. Gelation: 10–14 hours. Demould: 24 hours. Full cure: 7 days ambient.
Carbon steel, stainless steel, CuNiFe. Lap shear: 10.44 MPa on carbon steel.
Non-leaking: up to 327 bar. Leaking: up to 229 bar. UKAS-accredited lab tested.
