THE PIPE REPAIR TAPE: EVERYTHING YOU SHOULD KNOW
INTRODUCTION Many of you may be wondering how to utilise pipe repair tape. These tapes have been used
by specialists for a long time and have shown to be satisfactory. In the plumbing industry, these tapes are used for a variety of purposes. Today's Document will provide a quick overview of this tape and how it may be used to fix leaks.
WHAT IS THE PIPE TAPE? THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF TAPE THAT ARE OFTEN USED FOR PIPE REPAIRS: ·
Silicone Tape
This self-fusing tape, unlike other tapes, does not attach to the pipe; instead, it clings to itself. ·
Pipe Thread Tape
Pipe thread tape creates a watertight seal and lubricates pipe connections to make threading and dismantling simpler.
HOW DOES PIPE REPAIR TAPE WORK? FOR SEALING THE LEAKING JOINTS Test for leaks by re-screwing the pipe into the junction. Remove the old seal and cover the pipe with pipe repair tape. Wrap the tape around the thread in the opposite direction from the re-srewing on the pipe.
FOR FRACTURED LEAKS Turn off the water until you detect the leak. Start wrapping tape over the pipe around the leak as soon as possible. Wrap the tape tightly and overlap it many times. To add to the protection, wrap the leak and the surrounding area in the same type of tape.
