Leaks from pipes and piping components


Possible approaches

Void Fill

  • Clamp has no seals, but the void between the clamp and the enclosed piping is filled with compound
  • Clamp is simpler to make
  • Particular care is required with heavily corroded pipes

Peripheral Seal

  • Clamp is equipped with circumferential seals at each bore and half joint seals
  • Clamp is more complex to make
  • Compound does not contact the defect
  • Only very short sections of the piping are exposed to the seal pressures

Clamp Arrangements

Pre-manufactured cast enclosure clamps

Custom fabricated enclosure clamps

Leaks from pipes and piping components

Pipe repairs generally require a clamp.

 

The clamp’s functions are to:

  • Enclose the defect
  • Retain the product
  • Restore pressure integrity

There are two possible approaches:

  • Void Fill
  • Peripheral Seal
