The STOP IT® Pipe Repair System is an easy-to-use, fast-curing, field-applied pipe repair system. Ideal for repairing leaks, reinforcing joints, rebuilding pipe wall strength due to the corrosion process – in virtually any situation, including underwater.
In Brazil, this solution is officially distributed by Paschoalin, which is InduMar’s representative, and therefore offers the best prices.
The STOP IT® Pipe Repair System consists of a knitted, fiberglass tape coated with special urethane resins that are water-activated and FIX STIX™, a hand-molded epoxy for filling voids and pipe gaps. In addition, we also send gloves for application and instructions for use, which include a Selection Guide. The Guide helps to independently identify which and how many kits to use in the repair, according to the diameter and pressure of the pipe.
STOP IT® stands continuous temperature from -29°C to 121°C and sporadic exposures from 121°C to 260°C and stands pressure up to 400 PSI/ 28 bar. In addition, STOP IT® tape combined with FIX STIX™ epoxy is compatible with most chemicals and can be used with any type of plastic or metal piping.
Some advantages of STOP IT® are that it can be installed by one person without special tools or hot work, and it provides quick repairs in the field, returning lines to operation in less than 30 minutes. STOP IT ® can even be applied to active leaks, for leaks with pressure up to 50 PSI / 3.5 bar.
What is the difference of this Repair Kit?
STOP IT®, unlike other similar solutions, can be installed by one person without special tools or hot work, as well as providing quick repairs in the field, returning lines to operation in less than 30 minutes.

Is it certified? Which companies in Brazil use this product?
STOP IT® is certified for use in drinking water lines by the NFS (USA), so several food industries in Brazil already use this solution.
The STOP IT® also has the ABS PDA certificate, for temporary repairs of up to 2 years, and can be recertified after inspection. This certificate is very important for the offshore industry, so this solution stands out from the others on the market.
What are the kit sizes?
The STOP IT kits are produced in 4 different sizes, they are: 2”x4′ (5.08cm x 1.2m); 2″x12′ (5.08×3.6m); 4″x12′ (10.16cm x 3.6m), and 4”x25′ (10.16cm x 7.62m).
It is necessary to use different size of STOP IT according to the repair characteristics?
Yes, the size of the STOP IT kit must be chosen according to the pressure and diameter of the pipe, more than one kit may be needed to execute the repair. In the Instructions for Use it is possible to check the Product Selection Guide table (this table was calculated according to ASME PCC-2).
On non-critical systems what is the repair duration?
For cases of salt water, fresh water pipe, fire system, refrigeration system etc. where systems are not critical in terms of safety, STOP IT remains in operation indefinitely, because in the event of failure another STOP IT can be applied, until a definitive repair be made.
And in critical application systems with or on pipes with dimensions greater than 18″?
In this case, INDUMAR offers engineered products that will certainly solve your leakage problems. If this is your case, please contact us so we can work on your solution!
