Ricom pipe repair clamp OPASKA SKRECANA DN100, model 1072ASWP

Ricom OPASKA SKRECANA DN100 is a pipe repair clamp designed to seal and reinforce cylindrical pipelines with a nominal diameter of 100 mm. The single-piece bolted clamp provides a mechanical repair solution for leaks, loose joints or damaged sections without the need to replace entire pipe runs. Constructed for on-site mounting with standard tools, this clamp is intended for use on water, sewage and compatible industrial piping systems where a bolted repair restores pressure integrity and prevents further leakage.

Advantages

The clamp offers a robust mechanical seal that can be installed quickly by maintenance personnel using common workshop tools. Its bolted design ensures reliable compression around the pipe circumference, while the profile and sealing element conform to typical smooth and slightly irregular pipe surfaces. Because it is modular and requires no welding, the clamp minimizes downtime and reduces the scope of excavation or dismantling during repair operations.

Suitable for

• Repairing leaks on 100 mm diameter cylindrical pipes
• Securing joints and connecting pipe sections
• Temporary or permanent repairs on water supply lines
• Sewer and drainage pipe repairs where a mechanical clamp is acceptable
• Industrial fluid lines compatible with the clamp materials

Key specifications

• Nominal pipe diameter: 100 mm
• Type: bolted pipe repair clamp for cylindrical pipes
• Application: sealing and reinforcement of pipe leaks and joints
• Installation: on-site mounting with standard hand tools
• Suitable media: water, sewage and compatible industrial fluids

How to use

Prepare the damaged area by cleaning loose debris, scale or corrosion to ensure the sealing element makes full contact with the pipe surface. Position the clamp centered over the leak or joint, engage the bolts and tighten progressively and evenly in a crisscross pattern to achieve uniform compression. After initial tightening, verify the seal under gradual pressure increase; re-torque bolts if necessary according to operational pressure and pipe material. Follow site safety procedures and isolate the pipeline where required before starting the repair.

Usage recommendations

Verify chemical compatibility between the pipeline media and clamp sealing materials before prolonged use. For corroded or heavily deformed pipes, confirm that the pipe section can accept a mechanical clamp and consider additional support or replacement if structural integrity is compromised. Store the clamp in a dry environment and inspect fasteners and sealing elements prior to installation.
