Ecoseal
Ecoseal is approved to Gas Industry Standard
(GIS) Leakage Control (LC) 25. It is the only
product on the market to have achieved
the specification set out in GIS LC25. The
specification sets out the requirements for
flexible joint penetrating sealant repair systems
for external application to ferrous distribution
pipes with either lead/yarn or mechanical type
joints. The maximum operating pressure must be
equal to or less than 2 bar, in areas where pipe
movement might be experienced.
There are three viscosities of Ecoseal, thick, thin
and ultra-thin. Each variety is designed to repair
a different leaking, corroded or damaged joint.
This includes mechanical, lead yarn and tightly
packed joints.
Ecoseal is a two-part Polyurethane resin. This
means a chemical reaction takes place when
the two parts meet and combine. The process
is user and environmentally friendly as no toxic
fumes or chemicals are released.
Ecoseal provides an alternative to encapsulation
repair systems. It is time-saving and cost-
saving because it eliminates the need for site
assessments and measuring for encapsulation
muffs. It provides an option to inject through the
socket or directly through the lead joint face.
Ecoseal can be used on spigots, mechanical
joints, socket joints, and valves. It can be used
on a range of pipes up to 2 bar pressure.
