Product Information

If you’re dealing with a minor leak, rubber and silicone repair tape is a simple solution. Like fiberglass resin tape, rubber and silicone tape come in a roll that can be wrapped directly around the PVC pipe. However, instead of adhering to the pipe, the repair tape adheres directly to itself.

These are made from materials such as silicone and other advanced polymers, which will fuse into a solid rubber band over the leak when wrapped around the pipe. If the pipe in question supplies water which is intended for human consumption, then you should ensure that the epoxy putty has WRAS approval, certifying it as safe for use with drinking water. Products which have not been independetly tested by WRAS could end up contaminating water and posing a danger.AB Original has a two hour work time. This allows more putty to be mixed in one go without the threat of premature curing, minimising waste, and allowing significant areas of damage to be repaired.

It does not need to be though, as knowing when to use which product is a lot more straightforward than you might think. Use epoxy putty to repair leaking pipes where pressure CAN be turned off
