Bk Mueller 160-703 Two Bolt Pipe Repair Clamp

Product Description

The BK MUELLER 160-703 is a two-bolt stainless steel pipe repair clamp designed to create a strong, positive seal over leaking or damaged pipe sections. Built for field repairs on half-inch pipe, it spans 6 inches of coverage to fully bridge cracks, holes, or joint failures. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and provides durable clamping force across a wide range of service environments. Licensed plumbers and pipe mechanics install this clamp as a reliable remediation solution when a section of distribution or service line develops a leak that requires immediate containment.

This clamp is suited for repair applications on half-inch pipe in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. Its 6-inch body length provides extended coverage over damaged areas, making it appropriate for splits, pinholes, or corrosion breakthroughs on straight pipe runs. The two-bolt design delivers even compression around the circumference of the pipe to maintain a consistent seal under normal service pressure.

Key Features

• Compatible with half-inch pipe for targeted repair on common residential line sizes
• 6-inch overall length provides extended leak coverage over damaged pipe sections
• Stainless steel clamp material resists corrosion for long-term service reliability
• Two-bolt configuration delivers balanced clamping force around the pipe circumference

Compatibility

Designed for use on half-inch diameter pipe as an OEM-style repair clamp for residential and light commercial plumbing leak repair applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before fitting the clamp. Center the clamp body over the leak point and tighten both bolts evenly to avoid uneven gasket compression. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for temporary and permanent pipe repair methods.
