Stop It®
Pipe Repair System
A leaking pipe can shut down production for hours, costing you valuable lost production. Stop It® can have you back up and running in about 30 minutes.
Stop It® can be used almost anywhere – including underwater and in chemical and military facilities – to repair chemical, steam, process and water lines. It’s an in-field repair system that can be quickly applied by one man, leaving other maintenance staff free to deal with other concerns.
The Stop It® Pipe Repair System consists of a knitted, fiberglass tape coated with special urethane resins that are water-activated to change from a wet adhesive tape to a hard urethane plastic in 30 minutes. No tools and no hot work needed to get your plant back to full capacity quickly.
Each kit includes a plug of Fix Stix epoxy to plug leaks or cracks or to provide a smooth transition at offsets. It Bonds through adhesion and the mechanical bond resulting from the tension of the wrap. While Stop It® can be used on straight runs of pipe, its conformability makes it especially useful for repairing leaks at bends, crosses, tees, or any other location.
