PROBLEM

Pin holes and cracks in a 16" pipe line carrying gas.
Gas = N2 Nitrogen
Temperature = 30-40°C
Pressure = 3.5kg/cm²
Pipeline OD. 20cm

APPLICATION

After exposing the pipe line by removing the protective lagging, the pipe surface was hand prepared by ensuring it was roughened up as much as possible.
The Thistlebond TRK19605 was applied to the pipe.
The pipe was also found to have fairly thin walls, so one other advantage of the UPS Pipe Repair was to increase the thickness of the pipe wall around the defective area, thereby giving the client some peace of mind regarding the LIFE expectancy of the pipe line.
The complete application had to be carried out whilst the pipe was in service.
The SURFACE TOLERANT characteristics of the UPS TRK19605 made this possible.
