What is SIPP?
Discover SIPP (Spray-In-Place-Pipe): The Next Generation of Pipe Rehabilitation
SIPP, or Spray-In-Place-Pipe, is the key to unlocking the repair potential in even the smallest pipe sizes, all the way down to 1 ¼”.
Internal pipe coating is a great option for pipe rehabilitation for pipes without significant cracks or breaks.
Let’s explore what SIPP is, how it functions, and why it’s an advanced solution for contemporary pipe repairs.
How Does SIPP Work?
The SIPP process involves several key steps:
1. Inspection and Preparation
Before coating the pipe, it is important to properly prepare the surface. This usually involves cleaning the pipe with a mechanical tool such as chain knockers and brushes ran by a flexible shaft to remove any debris or contaminants, and possibly roughing up the surface to provide a better bonding surface for the coating.
2. Application of Spray Coating
The coating material is applied using a centrifugal-force rotated spray head, which sprays a thin layer of the material onto the inside surface of the pipe.
The material may be applied in one or more layers, depending on the thickness of the coating desired. Usually, 3 application layers is recommended.
The epoxy resin can also be applied with a spray gun that can be attached to Spraypoxy's MidiCoater System.
3. Curing
After the coating material has been applied, it must be allowed to cure.
This typically involves letting the material sit for a period of time, during which it will harden and become fully bonded to the surface of the pipe.
The Spraypoxy Blower 3200 W can be used to accelerate the process.
4. Inspection
Once the coating has fully cured, the pipe should be inspected with an inspection camera to ensure that it has been applied properly and that there are no defects or areas of thin coverage.
This may involve visual inspection and/or testing using specialized equipment.
If everything meets quality standards, the pipe is ready to return to service.
