STOPKIT Test at 14ӯ Plain Pipe with a 6mm Hole Arresting an air Leak Under 7.0 BarG Pressure. Ear protection required due to high noise level. Leak Arrested at 10 N.m Torque. Note:- After air test the spool was filled with water and successfully tested at 80 BarG - 20 N.m Torque
STOPKIT Test 6” Elbow with a 4mm Hole at Weld HAZ Water Leak with Initial Pressure kept at 2.5 BarG. As the leak rate started to be reduced the pressure was gradually increased to 80.0 BarG to assess the STOPKIT performance.
STOPKIT Test 6” Elbow with a 4mm Hole at Weld HAZ 40 N.m Torque Applied Pressure 80.0n BarG Minor Leak - Tear 44 N.m Final Torque Leak Permanently Arrested
STOPKIT Final Test at 80.0 BarG - Ø6”Elbow & Ø14” Pipe 6” Elbow 80.0 BarG 14”Ø Pipe
STOPKIT 100 – Large Pad for Major Leaks STOPKIT 100 25mm Hole on Plain Pipe Pressurized up to 36.0 BarG. Evidence of Leak at around 30.0 BarG. Pressure Stabilized at 25.0 BarG – Leak Stopped
STOPKIT 50 – Smaller Pad for pinholes STOPKIT 50 4mm Hole on Top of the Weld - Tested up to 36.0 BarG. No Evidence of Leaks
