The application services division of
Belzona Technosol has successfully
stemmed a gas leak on a 24in cast
iron pipe at a steel works in Teesside.
The pipe was the gas main between the coke ovens and the power plant and required an immediate solution.
A leak was detected and a 25cm long crack was found to be the cause.
Belzona 1121 (Super XL-Metal) was selected to pack the gasket and to create fillets on either side of the flange. A three layer wrap repair was then completed using Belzona 1121 and Belzona 9341 (Reinforcing Tape), ensuring a long lasting repair.
Preparation, application and cure were completed in two days. The gas main was then reopened and tested at full pressure to the satisfaction of the client.
