Clamp repair GEBO DSK for steel pipes 6/4" (01.260.28.05)

The GEBO DSK clamp for steel pipes 6/4" is a repair clamp designed to restore a sealed connection on damaged or leaking sections of steel pipe. It fits around pipes of the specified nominal size and is tightened to compress a sealing element against the pipe surface, providing a mechanical solution for containment and temporary or permanent repair. The clamp is intended for use where pipe diameter and material are compatible with the product's design.

Advantages

The clamp provides a straightforward mechanical repair method that avoids cutting out and replacing whole pipe sections. Its design allows rapid on-site installation with standard tools, and the clamping action creates a watertight joint when applied correctly. The construction is suitable for typical plumbing and industrial maintenance tasks where a durable seal and corrosion-resistant components are required.

Suitable for

• Repairing leaks on steel water, heating, and process pipes of nominal size 6/4"
• Temporary or permanent on-site pipe repairs during maintenance outages
• Plumbing and industrial applications where a mechanical clamp solution is preferred

Key specifications

• Nominal pipe size: 6/4" (sized for compatible steel pipe outer diameter)
• Application: repair of damaged or leaking steel pipe sections
• Sealing method: compressive gasket / sealing element under clamp
• Installation: mechanical tightening with standard wrenches
• Material compatibility: designed for use with steel pipes

How to use

Prepare the pipe by cleaning the area around the defect and removing loose rust, scale, and debris to ensure good contact between the sealing element and the pipe surface. Position the clamp so the sealing element fully covers the damaged section, then bring the clamp halves together and tighten the fasteners evenly. Tighten progressively and alternately on both sides until the sealing element compresses and a leak-free joint is achieved. After installation, verify the repair under operating pressure and re-tighten if minor adjustments are needed.

Usage recommendations

Use the clamp only on compatible steel pipes of the correct nominal size. For long-term installations, check compatibility with the fluid, operating pressure, and temperature range. Follow standard safety procedures when working with pressurized systems: isolate the pipe, depressurize, and drain the section before installation. If the pipe is severely corroded or structurally compromised, consider full section replacement rather than relying solely on a clamp repair.
