Acid Piping Technology, the worldwide supplier of MONDI™ pipe and fittings, recently tested the ability of Flange Pelseal® to seal gaps in MONDI™ flanges created by impact damage or corrosion. Gaps that could not be sealed by conventional gaskets alone.
Both tests yielded impressive results.
The first test examined the application of Flange Pelseal® in a typical impact damage scenario. The image gallery to the left shows the test damage, preparation, and application of the product to solve this common problem.
