The Smith-Blair Style 229 Full Circle collar leak clamp fixes a leaking solvent-weld bell on PVC pipe by assembling outside the collar — without cutting or draining the pipe. A 304 stainless band and 360° Nitrile gasket seal the joint, with removable epoxy-coated ductile iron lugs.
Application: leaking plastic solvent-weld belled-end pipe joints and threaded steel couplings.
Key Features
Included: the clamp with its Nitrile gasket, lugs, bolts and nuts, ready to install.
Spring washers on HDPE pipe, ordered separately. Smith-Blair requires spring washers on HDPE applications; ask us to include them with the clamp.
Smith-Blair warrants its products to be free of defects in materials and workmanship for one year from the date of shipment by Smith-Blair.

Up to 150 PSI. Smith-Blair rates the allowable working pressure of a repair clamp to fall as pipe diameter rises; for a particular installation it is set by pipe size and type, the type and extent of the damage, service conditions and installation workmanship.
