In this live application video, we demonstrate how the PipeWrap Live Leak Sealing System is used to rapidly seal an active pressurised pipeline leak using a combination of UPS SEAL-FLEX TAPE and the UPS EMERGENCY PIPE REPAIR BANDAGE.
This effective, field-proven repair method provides an immediate, reinforced seal without the need for hot work, downtime, or equipment removal—making it an essential solution for emergency repair teams, industrial maintenance crews, and utilities engineers working in critical environments.
