It looks like the fibreglass casting tape used to immobilise fractured bones. I've used it extensively for it's intended purpose, but also for strengthening joints in PVC pipes etc
I usually buy it on eBay from OS which is much cheaper than local channels. It comes in various widths and colours from 5 cm to 15 cm.
It comes in a sealed pack, add water and apply. Hardens in a couple of minutes.

Looks like the Rappit bandages that are used extensively in the mining industry for patching pipes etc. Been around for years.
Not cheap and has been suggested, once opened it all needs to be used.
Good for emergencies though and I wouldnt hesitate to have one in the toolbox for such an occasion.
