The most cost effective permanent repair for large diameter pipes.

In-Weg synthetic rubber seals are installed over the interior of the joint from inside the pipe. Used on all types of pipe, including cast iron, concrete and steel with diameters from 400 mm (16") to 3658 mm (144") these seals permanently eliminate leaks at internal pressures up to 20 bar (300psi.) Excavations for access are usually 600 meters apart but can be much more, causing little disruption to traffic. Manufactured in the USA, over 50,000 have been successfully installed worldwide.

The seals are locked into place by carbon or stainless steel retaining bands, depending on the application. Seals can be used in conjunction with specially manufactured sleeves to permanently seal cracks, reducers or disused branches.

EPDM synthetic rubber seals are classified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to ANSI/NSF standard 61-1991 for use with potable water.

Nitrile synthetic rubber seals are manufactured to BGC/LC6 standard for use on natural gas lines.
