QUICK-LOCK STANDARD
Quick-Lock, the revolutionary sleeve system
The Quick-Lock system revolutionizes sewer line repair.
Application: The Quick-Lock sleeve is multifaceted. It can be installed horizontally or vertically, above or below the water level.
Thanks to the premium quality and wear resistance of its constituent materials, Quick-Lock is suitable not only for sewer line repair, but also for potable water, seawater and industrial applications.
System description
UHRIG’s Quick-Lock system is more than just a repair solution. The patented Quick-Lock system, which is based on the principle of compression and made from the durable materials316L stainless steel and EPDM, has proven itself over the course of many years in the area of internal pipe rehabilitation.
In addition to its classic application in sewer line repair, the Quick-Lock system is also used to connect liners and to rehabilitate wells and man-entry pipes.
How it works
-
▶ The Quick-Lock system seals and stabilizes any damaged areas by purely mechanical means, without the need for chemicals, and regardless of
the pipe material - ▶ The patented locking system ensures that the EPDM seal is securely compressed
- ▶ The sleeve maintains its static capability after the rehabilitation and absorbs the natural movements of the pipes
- ▶ In the case of damage along an extended section of a pipeline, Quick-Lock sleeves can be installed in series
Application
The Quick-Lock sleeve is multifaceted. It can be installed horizontally or vertically, above or below the water level. Thanks to the premium quality and wear resistance of its constituent materials, Quick-Lock is suitable not only for sewer line repair, but also for potable water, seawater and industrial applications.
Trenchless Technology
The Quick-Lock system is the perfect solution for many types of damage:
- ▶ Crack and fragmentation
- ▶ In- and exfiltration
- ▶ Root intrusion
- ▶ Leakage
- ▶ Closing blind inlets
If the damaged area is longer than a single sleeve, Quick-Lock sleeves can be installed in series over the length of the damaged area. The overlapping rubber are absolutely leakproof.
Industrial application
The Quick-Lock sleeve’s constituent materials, 316L stainless steel and EPDM, are highly resistant to corrosion and heat, which makes Quick-Lock suitable for a wide range of applications in industrial piping.
316L stainless steel can also be used, under certain conditions, for applications with a high concentration of acids and alkalis. EPDM can be used at temperatures of up to 120°C / 248°F and can withstand high concentrations of acids and alkalis.
Before using Quick-Lock in industrial application, a wastewater analysis should be carried out to assess the wear resistance of the 316L stainless steel and the EPDM seal.
Mobile application
If a worksite cannot be accessed with a rehabilitation truck (e.g. at landfills, in railroad or tunnel drainage systems), Quick-Lock’s mobile equipment makes a repair possible.
Drainage area
Quick-Lock sleeves can be produced in a perforated variant for use in wells, horizontal wells, and drop pipes. These sleeves maintain the water permeability of the pipework while restoring its structural integrity.
Pre-sealing and pre-stabilization
In the case of extreme infiltration or static stabilization, Quick-Lock can be used as a pre-sealing measure in preparation for installing a hose liner. The Quick-Lock sleeve is barely noticeable under the liner.
Pressurised pipelines
The Quick-Lock system can be used in pressurised pipelines with an internal pressure of up to 25 bar / 145.04 psi in connection with a protection shield.
Specifications
Materials
Quick-Lock’s constituent materials, 316L stainless steel and EPDM seal, have proven themselves in pipeline construction for decades. Grade 316L stainless steel lasts virtually forever in municipal wastewater .
The EPDM seal is a state-of-the-art pipe engineering product with a high service life and extremely high wear resistance.
In the case of special applications in industrial settings, refineries, or seawater, we can supply you with a stainless steel sleeve in special alloys upon request. In addition, we also offer an NBR-quality seal for applications involving oil, grease, & hydrocarbon. For potable water applications, we offer a KTW-approved potable water seal.
Product range
The Quick-Lock sleeve is available in two configurations:
- Variant 1: Length 400mm, diameter DN 150–400 / 6”–16”, internal pressure 25 bar /262.59 psi, external pressure 1.5 bar / 21.76 psi
- Variant 2: Length 500mm, diameter DN 450–500 / 18”–19”, internal pressure 25 bar / 262.59 psi, external pressure 1.5 bar / 21.76 psi. Length 500 mm, diameter DN 600 / 23", internal pressure 0,75 bar / 884.73 psi, DN 700 / 28", internal pressure 0,5 bar / 72.51 psi and DN 800 / 32", internal pressure 0,3 bar / 43.51 psi
pressure resistance can always only be guaranteed in conjunction with the use of a protective
plate around the outside of the seal. The protective plate prevents the seals from being displaced
into any gaps or fissures in the pipe.
For us to be able to guarantee quality service, it is essential that you use Quick-Lock installation packers to install the Quick-Lock sleeves. In the case of non-standardized internal pipe diameters, we can offer you a wide range of special solutions. If you need to rehabilitate a pressurized pipe, we are happy to give you individual advice. A perforated Quick-Lock sleeve is available for damage in drainage or filter pipework.
Quality and certifications
In addition to offering a premium product, we attach the utmost importance to our service providers doing excellent work. The rehabilitation of wastewater and sewer lines using internal sleeves is regulated in the new DWA M 143-5 technical bulletin.
Quick-Lock has had the European Technical Approval issued by the German Institute for Building Technology (DIBt) since 2005. This approval ensures the quality of the Quick-Lock system including all of its components. In addition, the Darmstadt Materials Testing Institute performs an inspection twice a year.
The high-pressure jetting resistance standards of pipe and renovation systems are regulated in DIN 19523. Based on this standard, the Quick-Lock system fulfills the same requirements as a newly installed pipe system. The testing procedure included 60 flushing sequences at a nozzle pressure of 110 bar / 1595.42 psi and a subsequent leak test.
The Quick-Lock system restores a pipe’s stability. It is the only point repair system with an official structural certificate (Typenstatik) for Class II pipes, based on a hydrostatic water pressure of 5m of water with twofold structural safety.
