HydraTech, known for its custom-manufactured solutions like the HydraTite internal pipe joint seal, has recently finished producing a batch of external pipe repair clamps designed to address external corrosion in high-pressure piping systems, using 3/8-inch thick 316L stainless steel and 3-inch by 1/4-inch rubber strips. These clamps, which involve intricate fabrication processes like cutting, hole punching, and robust welding, will be used used as external termination clamps at the ends of fiber wrapped portions of pipe to reinforce the repairs.

HydraTite can be installed in corrugated pipes, despite the irregular surface. These installations just require a bit more surface prep. The flutes only have to be filled in where you expect the ribs of the rubber seal to lay, with 1 inch of wiggle room. After the surface is prepared, the installation looks like any other.
