The Skinner Company Pipeline Repair Clamp (Model PL)

The Skinner Company, Skinner-Seal®, Model PL pipeline clamp is constructed of ductile iron, is equipped with a pressure equalizing Buna-N gasket, and is used for long splits or extensive corrosion resulting in a series of pit holes. This repair clamp has the same construction as the Model EM emergency pipe clamp except it is double in length. The ample weight of this repair clamp gives a generous margin of safety for high pressure work. With bolts along one side and a hinge along the other, the Model PL pipeline repair clamp can be quickly installed under pressure without interruption of service which saves on the cost of new pipe, the time and labor of replacing the old pipe, and the expense of shutting down while the work is being done.
