External Leak Stop for Plastic Components for leaks up to 5 mm.
EXTERNAL P is a Leak Stop that attaches to all types of plastics effectively sealing all types of leaks up to 5 mm.
Specifically designed to be inert and to resist if in contact with all thermal solutions, EXTERNAL P has a good elasticity and therefore adapts to the expansion of the pipe.
It resists normal flushing liquids and temperatures between -10°C to +270°C. The pressure resistance depends on the size of the leak.
Two fingers are enough to melt the two components of EXTERNAL P. The leakage will be closed in a few movements.
EXTERNAL P is ideal in case of emergency operations, in order to quickly restore a system. It also does not disperse residues in the system and can be easily removed to go on with a subsequent different type of intervention.
Once dry, EXTERNAL P can be sanded and finished.
EXTERNAL P can be also combined with the action of BLUET: first fix the greater leak from the outside and then complete the sealing operation from the inside. The two products are not only compatible, but also synergistic.
Instructions:
- find the leak by using the usual detection methods
- once the leak is identified, turn off the system, clean the application area with THOR to ensure a better grip
- cut with a cutter or a knife a quantity of EXTERNAL P which is enough to create a ring all around the entire diameter of the pipe in the area of the leak
- wear protective gloves and mix the two components for a while. The color must be uniform and you should perceive a slight sensation of heat
- pull the mixture well on the leak, let it adhere well to the whole circumference
- wait 24 hours for a perfect drying. In case you need to speed up the drying time, use a hairdryer or other heat source (N.B. non-direct flame).
- once the product is dried, let the system run normally again
- if you need to remove the product, spray THOR on it, wait a moment, grab the ring with pliers or spanner with a little pressure that does not deform the pipe and rotated in one direction.
For professional use.
