Rapp-it is suitable for use on corroded fluid lines, water reticulation pipelines, and outflow pipes that are widely used in hydro-electrical power stations.
SCOPE
The customer advised that they had an overhead leak in a 100mm water main line. The pipe required urgent repair, as the damaged area was dangerously close to electrical conduits which was creating a safety hazard.
SOLUTION
The customer reduced the line pressure and then cleaned and roughened the damaged area. The leak was plugged with Rapp-it Steel Putty and Rapp-it Pipe Repair Bandages (100mm x 4.8m) were applied over the top. The line was fully functional 30 minutes after application.
