FAQs

1. Can service repair clamps be used on all types of pipes?

Service repair clamps are versatile and can be used on various pipe materials, including steel, copper, PVC, ductile iron, and asbestos cement. However, compatibility depends on the pipe diameter, material thickness, and the pressure rating of the clamp, so choosing the right type is essential for a secure fit.

2. Are service repair clamps a permanent fix for leaking pipes?

While service repair clamps can provide a long-term solution, they are generally considered a temporary or semi-permanent fix. For critical applications or high-pressure systems, replacing the damaged section of the pipe is recommended to ensure long-term reliability.

3. What factors should I consider when selecting a service repair clamp?

When choosing a service repair clamp, consider factors such as the pipe material, size, pressure rating, and the type of damage (e.g., pinhole leaks, cracks, or full breaks). Additionally, check the clamp’s material quality and sealing mechanism to ensure a proper fit and effective repair.

4. Can service repair clamps be installed without shutting off the water supply?

Yes, service repair clamps can often be installed while the pipe is still in service, making them an ideal solution for emergency leak repairs in municipal water lines, industrial pipelines, and residential plumbing systems where shutting down the supply isn’t an option.

5. Do service repair clamps work on high-pressure pipelines?

Yes, but only certain types of repair clamps are rated for high-pressure applications. Heavy-duty clamps made of reinforced stainless steel with high-pressure gaskets are designed to withstand significant pressure loads, making them suitable for industrial and municipal water systems.
