Continuous
Re-Lining
Sometimes the damage extends
over a large area of the pipe. In this case re-lining may
become desirable and LINK-PIPE® can be specified. If applied over the
entire length of the pipe, a very durable and chemically
resistant liner is created, offering a high degree of
reliability and strength.

LINK-PIPE®
Reduces Re-Lining Cost
Concrete
pipes that carry chemically aggressive effluents, often erode
from end to end. In this case the relining is necessary to
protect the concrete component of the pipe. Cost of re-lining can be lowered because a
thinner liner can be used when local structural repair is first
made using LINK-PIPE®

Restoration
of Laterals
Laterals are
restored by simply cutting at the
lateral a hole into main-line sleeve and inserting a Link-Pipe GROUTING
SLEEVE or an appropriate length of small diameter PVC
pipe into the lateral. LINK-PIPE® PVC sleeves can be always
cut by woodworking tools.
