CIPP Equipment and Materials

1 // HammerHead Trenchless Bluelight LED CIPP Lining System
The Bluelight LED CIPP Lining System from HammerHead Trenchless is an advanced light-curing system for the rehabilitation of laterals and small drain pipes. The technology empowers CIPP installers by alleviating the time pressures of other lining systems. The specially formulated resin only cures under light in the blue wavelength (444-457 nm) giving installers virtually unlimited working time between liner wet-out and curing. Once the liner is in place, the automated curing system pulls the LED light head through the liner, curing the resin almost instantly — as fast as 5.4 feet per minute. Instead of waiting hours for the liner to cure, a 50-foot sewer line could be fully cured in under 10 minutes. The system has a touch-screen interface and three light head options to cure liners 3 to 10 inches in diameter. 800-331-6653; www.hammerheadtrenchless.com

2 // Hurricane Reinstatement Solutions Twister
The Twister from Hurricane Reinstatement Solutions offers users an upright tool that will spin at a high rpm, allowing for faster cleaning whether for opening a blockage, root removal, descaling or doing reinstatements on CIPP liners. It comes in both 110- and 240-volt models. Both units feature an open-air drum concept and are only 17.5 inches wide, allowing for tight areas. They come with Baldor Motors available in 1.5, 2 and 3 hp models and ABB drives with an internal clutch for safety of the user and longevity of the cable. Both units offer a cable distribution array allowing the cable to be positioned in multiple angles and positions while reducing the traditional weights of other tools. 702-376-1483; www.hurricanereinstatementsolutions.com

3 // MaxLiner MaxLight
MaxLiner’s LED-based UV curing system, MaxLight, optimizes CIPP operations by increasing work efficiency. Curing does not begin until resin is exposed to the finely calibrated UV light, allowing pre-impregnated liner assembly at the shop or on site, eliminating pot life concerns and allowing for several installations in a single day. The systems are formulated to cure with UV light and offer superior mechanical properties and chemical resistance. These resins are designed with excellent wet-out capability, ultra-low odor and are styrene-free. Systems are single-component resins designed to meet all specifications for a fully structural CIPP liner conforming to all applicable ASTM standards. 877-426-5948; www.maxlinerusa.com

4 // Picote Solutions Midi Roller
The hybrid Midi Roller from Picote Solutions is battery operated (up to 10 hours working time) or chargeable while in use, and can be used to easily wet out CIPP liners from 2 to 8 inches on site. It comes with variable speed and bidirectional controls. The upper roller lifts up, making wet-out faster and easier. It can be used as a stand-alone roller, or add to the Picote Wet Out Station to build a complete 59-inch portable and powered wet-out unit. The unit is 14.2 by 19.1 by 10.4 inches, and provides variable speeds of 9 to 29.5 feet per minute, with gapping of 4 to 14 mm (in 0.5 mm increments). 708-267-6366; www.picotesolutions.com

5 // Pipe Lining Supply Magma Flex
Magma Flex from Pipe Lining Supply is a fiberglass material suitable for use with heat or UV curing processes. It is up to four times stronger than standard lining material, and can be used for conventional lining of nominal diameters, transitions from one dimension to another and for point repair. 888-354-6464; www.pipeliningsupply.com

6 // Pipeline Renewal Technologies SpeedyLight+
SpeedyLight+ from Pipeline Renewal Technologies is an LED-based UV solution for CIPP that cures at speeds ranging from 0.66 to 3.3 feet per minute. Because it’s compatible with felt (as well as invertible glass fiber), it can cure 90-degree bends in lines as small as 4 inches, as well as other challenging geometries like transitions and verticals. Free of styrene and amines (and the associated odor), UV-based cure technologies raise fewer objections from the public and a crew. The single-part vinyl ester resin requires no mixing and eliminates shelf life and working time challenges. It uses LED lamps to cure, drawing half the power of traditional UV technology while providing a more powerful cure. The integrated camera lets operators monitor the curing process in real time for optimal quality control. The highly portable design allows for access from even the most remote sites, curing up to 328 feet of liner in pipe 4 to 12 inches. 866-936-8476; www.pipelinert.com

7 // Waterline Renewal Technologies LightRay LR3 LED UV System
The LightRay LR3 LED UV System from Waterline Renewal Technologies allows the operator complete control of the curing process. It can significantly reduce costs and risks compared to traditional thermo-setting or ambient-cured CIPP liners, creating new opportunities for plumbers and municipal contractors. It is both a pull-in-place and spot repair system that provides the flexibility to perform both operations by changing the double-strand cold LED repair packer. Non-VOC resin is pre-impregnated into the high-performance fiberglass liner and shipped ready to install for no-dig small-diameter pipe infrastructure repairs. Once the install site is prepped, casting times in less than 10 minutes can be achieved, eliminating the risk of premature or prolonged curing times due to temperature variations. It can be used to repair pipe diameters of 3, 4 or 6 inches, including transitions. The 100-foot hose couples with 5-, 10- or 20-foot packers to perform repairs. 866-336-2568; www.waterlinerenewal.com/brand/lightray

Pipeline Rehabilitation/Lining

17 // Aries Industries Test and Seal Grouting System
The Test and Seal Grouting System from Aries Industries reduces setup time and provides efficient hands-on control to quickly seal leaking joints. Grout — pumped to a leaking joint — flows through the leak, sealing the surrounding soil to form an impenetrable barrier. Sixty-gallon tanks and continuous-duty mixers provide high volume to seal large voids. Reels for fast deployment and retrieval, as well as high-power winches, quickly move the packer from joint to joint for high productivity. The unit’s 800 feet of color-coded hose allows long runs. The truck comes with a bench, storage and room to work. The operator tests and seals the joints while working in the control room, where test data and the sealing process are easily viewed, recorded and logged. 800-234-7205; www.ariesindustries.com

Liners can be launched from existing access points to not only seals cracks and leaks but restore sections of pipe that have deteriorated. These pipe systems include vertical sanitary stacks, horizontal sewer mains, branches, roof drains and lateral lines. The company has bridged the gap between technology and technician by utilizing a technique with data streaming, which is available on site to any smart device using QR codes. 888-478-6649; www.internalpipetech.com

19 // Prime Resins PR10
PR10 acrylamide from Prime Resins is a low-viscosity permeation liquid chemical grout that is injected from within the manhole, wicking into the soil outside or used to curtain-grout the exterior. A high-pressure pump injects grout through the manhole wall into the surrounding soil or is injected directly into the surrounding soil, creating an impermeable barrier. The permeation grout doesn’t expand, but rather saturates the soil immediately outside of the manhole (with a desired gel time) that permanently stabilizes the soil and prevents further groundwater penetration. 800-321-7212; www.primeresins.com

20 // Sprayroq SprayWall
SprayWall from Sprayroq is a rigid polyurethane material that provides structural integrity and infiltration control to underground infrastructure assets. It is a 2-1 ratio product that is applied via a heated, plural component spray system. It begins to gel in about eight seconds and is tack-free after two minutes. Within 30 to 60 minutes, the initial cure is complete and the structure is capable of accepting flow. The benefits include its structural capacity, which provides for protection against multiple load components within an underground asset including water, soil and traffic loads. In addition, it allows an asset owner to return a structure to service quickly, creating a huge savings on bypass cost, as well as decreasing the overall downtime for a given structure. It is also third-party tested and most recently has undergone significant successful evaluations through AASHTO. 205-957-0020; www.sprayroq.com
