About Us

PipeMan Products, Inc. has been offering innovative plumbing products to the PHCC and Water Works World since 2001. We offer unique solutions "That Work" to meet the industry's demand for efficient pipe repair products.

We started the business with our revolutionary Insta-Clamp™ Solder Joint Repair Clamp that has changed the way commercial plumbers and mechanical engineers do business with hospitals, hotels, large building facilities and manufacturing plants. It helped them eliminate shut-downs or to schedule repairs when it was best for the facility.

Since then, we have expanded our line of products to provide the hard to find and very best solutions for the Hot Tap, Line Stop, Pipe Freeze and Commercial Pipe Repair Industry. We look forward to assisting you for many years to come.

What is Hot Tapping?

Hot tapping is also known as wet tapping. It is a way to tap into a water line while it is under pressure and add a line, drain the system or add a Thermowell or sensor. You place a hot tap service saddle or sleeve onto the line. You add a valve and test the connection under pressure with a hydrostatic pump. Then you place the hot tap machine onto the value through a water tight packing gland, open the valve and lower the cutter and retention pilot down until it touches the pipe. You then drill into the pipe manually or with an electric or air driven unit that cuts a hole in the pipe.

Top Questions

What is Line Stopping?

When you can’t stop the flow in a line and need to do a repair without draining the system or causing a long shut down, a line stop works well. Line stopping is similar to hot tapping in that you will be tapping into a live line under pressure. You will then remove the hot tap machine and place a line stop machine onto the valve. A line stop machine has rubber bladders that act like line plugs that will expand after being lowered down into the pipe. Once the flow is stopped, the repair can be performed.

How do I fix a leak on a copper solder joint without shutting down the line?

There were not a lot of inexpensive options for fixing a leaking solder joint without shutting down the system until the Insta-Clamp was born. The Insta-Clamp can fix a 1/2" to 4.00" copper solder joint leak in just a few minutes with its unique step-up NBR Waffle gasket. It allows you to do a permanent or temporary repair in minutes without draining or shutting down the system or using a lot of time and materials.

Questions By Product Type

Tapping Sleeves

Question: With so many products to choose from, how do I know which tapping sleeve I need?

Answer: Knowing which tapping sleeve to use can be difficult. If you don’t know which product to buy, please call us Toll Free at 1-877-PIPEMAN (747-3626) and let us help you. To correctly assess which product will meet your needs we need to know several things:

1. Type of Pipe: (carbon steel, PVC, copper, Ductile Iron, C900 ACP and others).2. Correct Pipe O.D.: (some saddles have range and some are exact fit).3. Contents in the Line: (Saddles do offer several types of gaskets for different applications).4. Temperature and Maximum PSI: (water sewer and air/gas lines have different ratings).

Question: We are interested in your powerseal hot tap sleeve to tap into an existing copper tower water line without draining the system, and minimal shut down time. I would like more information on how the tap is actually made after the sleeve is installed.

Answer: The PS 3425 SS Hot Tap Sleeve is the premier tapping saddle for copper pipe. They are available in 3/4"x3/4" to 8"x3" and size-on-size i.e. 2"x2" 4"x4" etc. To use this or any other hot tap saddle or sleeve you need a Hot Tap machine. There are portable units that can do a 3/4"-2.00" tap or our professional models that can go to 6" taps. They range from $649.00 and up for the portable units and $3,995.00 and up for the professional model. Instructions: You place the saddle/sleeve on the line and add a valve (ball valve, gate valve. Corp stop). Then you test the saddle for fit and pressure retention with a hydrostatic test pump which goes through the valve.
