Abstract
A liner for a pipe comprises a pair of imperforate sleeves telescoped within one another and having a resin absorbant fiber mat and resin supply tube disposed therebetween. A polymerizable resin is injected between the sleeves through the resin supply tube. The resin tube may be withdrawn from the pipe. The liner is folded to a U-shaped cross section to facilitate insertion into the pipe.
