This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
Designation: F2599 − 20 F2599 − 22
Standard Practice for
Sectional Repair of Damaged Pipe By Means of an Inverted
1,2
Cured-In-Place Liner
This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2599; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope*
1.1 This practice covers requirements and test methods for the sectional cured-in-place lining (SCIPL) repair of a pipe line (4 in.
through 60 in. (10.2 cm through 152 cm)) by the installation of a continuous resin-impregnated-textile tube into an existing host
pipe by means of air or water inversion and inflation. The tube is pressed against the host pipe by air or water pressure and held
in place until the thermoset resins have cured. When cured, the sectional liner shall extend over a predetermined length of the host
pipe as a continuous, one piece, tight fitting, corrosion resistant, and verifiable non-leaking cured-in-place pipe.
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical
conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.3 There is no similar or equivalent ISO Standard.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility
of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of
regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization
established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued
by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

3. Terminology
3.1 Definitions:
3.1.1 Unless otherwise indicated, definitions are in accordance with Terminology F412, and abbreviations are in accordance with
Terminology D1600.
3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:
3.2.1 access point, n—upstream or downstream manholes, that serve as the point of entrance or exit for the liner assembly into
the existing pipe.
3.2.2 bladder, n—a translucent plastic apparatus that when pressurized, causes the tube to be inverted through the damaged pipe
section and pressed against the pipe walls. The bladder joined with the tube creates a liner/bladder assembly.
3.2.3 frangible connection, n—a joining or combining of two objects that can be easily disconnected or separated by means of
force.
3.2.4 SMHG O-ring, n—a neoprene seamless molded hydrophilic O-ring that is moisture activated with expansion characteristics
of 5-8 times its original thickness, producing a compression gasket seal between the cured liner tube and the host pipe.
3.2.5 inversion, n—the process of turning the resin-impregnated tube inside out by the use of air or water pressure.
3.2.6 launcher, n—an elongated flexible pressure vessel (hose apparatus) with one open end and one closed end, capable of
receiving air pressure to cause a liner/bladder assembly to invert forward out from the launcher.
3.2.7 lift, n—a portion of the cured liner that has cured in a position such that it has pulled away from the existing pipe wall.
3.2.8 liner/bladder assembly, n—a combination of a tube and bladder that are frangibley connected.
3.2.9 nominal thickness, n—the finished liner thickness after curing.
3.2.10 resin, n—polyester, vinyl ester, epoxy or silicate resin systems being ambient or steam cured.
3.2.11 sectional cured-in-place lining (SCIPL), n—a textile tube impregnated by a thermosetting resin, which is formed within a

F2599 − 22
in the rehabilitation of pipes through the use of a resin-impregnated tube installed within a damaged existing host pipe. As for any
practice, modifications may be required for specific job conditions.
5. Materials
5.1 Tube:
5.1.1 The textile tube shall consist of one or more layers of absorbent textile, for example, needle punched felt or circular knit,
fiberglass or similar textile materials that meet the requirements of Practice F1216 and the Requirements and Test Methods sections
of Specification D5813. The tube shall be constructed to withstand installation pressures and to have sufficient strength to bridge
missing pipe segments and flexibility to fit irregular pipe sections. The wet-out tube shall meet the Resin Impregnation
Requirements of Practice F1216, and shall have a uniform thickness with excess resin distribution that when compressed at
installation will meet or exceed the design thickness after cure.
5.1.2 The tube shall be surrounded by an impermeable flexible translucent bladder that will contain the resin and facilitate visual
monitoring of the vacuum impregnation (wet-out) procedure.
5.1.3 The tube shall be continuous. No intermediate or encapsulated elastomeric layers shall be in the textile that may cause
delamination in the finished cured-in-place pipe. The tube shall be sized accordingly to create a circular lining equal to the inside
of the host pipe.
5.1.4 The tube shall be fabricated with a 2 in. (5.1 cm) ring of compressible textile material at the upstream and downstream ends,
to create a smooth transition. The compressible textile material will compress to meet the host pipe at its leading end and match
the nominal thickness of the tube at its opposite end.
5.2 Resin:
5.2.1 For design purposes a 50-year time-dependent flexural modulus shall be determined in accordance with Test Method D2990
with a minimum test duration of 10 000 h.
5.2.2 Materials containing fiberglass shall meet the requirements of Specification D5813 Section 8.2.2.
5.2.3 The resin shall be a corrosion resistant polyester, vinyl ester, epoxy resin, or silicate and catalyst system that when properly
cured within the composite liner assembly, meets the requirements of Practice F1216, the physical properties herein, and those,
which are to be utilized in the design of the SCIPL for this project.
5.2.4 The resin shall produce a SCIPL, which will comply with the structural and chemical resistance requirements of
