Installation Procedure
Step #1| Thoroughly clean the damaged area with a wire brush. Remove all pipe scales, rust, and
foreign material. This will help ensure a “bubble-tight” seal.

Step #2| Back off the ends of the bolts, but do not remove them.
Separate halves and fit around
pipe.
Step #3| Center the gasket over the area of the leak. Make sure the gasket extends past the
damaged area.
Step #4| Relocate the bolt heads securely into their receiving lugs.
Step #5| Tighten the bolts evenly to the recommended torque shown
above.
Step #6| Pressure test the complete installation for leaks.
Step #7| Check for leaks before leaving the repair site.
GASKET Material:
Buna-N (Nitrile Rubber) rated at 250 F Max to -20 F Min Temp.
