HydraTite Mechanical Sealing System
HydraTite® seals are custom made for each project. Seals provide a low-cost option for the repair of leaking joints, with projects normally completed in days, not weeks! Superior quality and intricate design assure a tight, leak-free seal. In use for more than 20 years, the system consists of a custom EPDM rubber seal held in place by stainless steel retaining bands. The seals can be interlocked to span long pipe lengths and can include a backing band to remediate pressure piping and cooling water expansion joints. The seal's flexibility accommodates for shifting, vibration, ground settling, and thermal expansion/contraction while the low profile ensures minimal flow loss. HydraTite® internal pipe joint seals are a proven solution for pipe joint repairs, pressure pipe repairs, and joint infiltration in drinking water systems, storm drain and wastewater systems, liquid and gas pipelines, and power generation stations.
