Rapp-it is suitable for use on most substrates, including poly pipe. This large manganese ore waste line is located in the Northern Territory, Australia.

SCOPE

The customer had a leak in their waste poly pipe which had been damaged over time. The pipe was spilling waste and mud which caused a safety hazard for workers around the site.

SOLUTION

The customer was able to stem the flow of gravel and waste by using a rubber lining followed by applying several Rapp-it Pipe Repair Bandages (100mm x 4.8m) over the top and around the pipe to completely seal the damaged area. By applying Rapp-it, the customer was able to stop the waste leak and work was able to continue, which saved thousands of dollars in downtime.
