About

How to fix a leaking pipe with a SylWrap Standard Pipe Repair Kit

The SylWrap Standard Pipe Repair Kit contains Superfast Steel Epoxy Putty and a SylWrap HD Pipe Repair Bandage for a two-stage repair.

Superfast Steel is a fast-working epoxy putty in a pre-measured stick. Users knead the putty by hand until it turns a uniform grey colour before pushing it into holes and cracks in pipework whilst still soft.

Within 5-10 minutes, Superfast Steel hardens to form a solid, watertight material filling the hole. Superfast Steel also removes step from joints and improves the condition of pitted pipe surfaces prior to the application of SylWrap HD Pipe Repair Bandage.

When pipe reprofiling, Superfast Steel is pressed firmly onto the area requiring improvement. It creates a flat, smoother surface which is easier to wrap with the bandage.

The second stage of the repair is reinforcement with SylWrap HD. Wetting the bandage activates the resin. SylWrap HD is then wrapped around the pipe and smoothed with water. It sets within 5 minutes to provide a rock-hard, impact-resistant layer of protection for a permanent repair.

3mm pinhole in 100mm stainless steel pipe no pressure repair

A demonstration video filmed at Sylmasta HQ. A 3mm pinhole was drilled into a 100mm stainless steel pipe with pressure turned off.

Firstly, Superfast Epoxy Putty was kneaded by hand and applied over the hole in the pipe. The putty quickly set to seal the leak. Secondly, SylWrap HD was wrapped over the top for added reinforcement.

After the repair, a pressure test showed the pipe withstanding an increase up to 30 bar with no sign of leakage or deformation.
