Before preparing to install the rapid repair clamp, please be sure that you refer to the separate safety instructions that accompany your clamp when purchased. First, you will place the clamp around the damaged pipe away from the immediate leak. Pre-tension the chain and locking handle so that the clamp properly suits the pipe diameter. Next, slide the clamp sideways and center the gasket directly over the leak.
To stop the leak, pull the locking handle so that the rapid repair clamp closes tightly around the pipe and the handle locks in place. Afterward, the clamp can be loosened or tightened as needed by using the convenient adjustment nut. Please note that this product does not retain axial pipe movement. Additionally, this product is not created to repair a full circumferential pipe leak.
