PVC Leak Stopper Rings

PVC Pipe Ring or Replace?

PVC rings are great for stopping leaks in an irrigation system, but at what point should you just replace the pipe? If you discover a tiny surface crack, you can probably stick to a ring. A PVC pipe ring can usually stop leaks without shutting down the entire system while you prepare a permanent repair. However, if the system runs at high pressure, the ring may not hold long-term. The same goes for large cracks or broken pipes. In such cases, replacing the damaged section entirely is usually recommended for the long-term health of your system.

PVC Leak Stopper Ring FAQs

How do leak-stopping rings work?

These rings fit snugly around a leaky joint or crack, creating a watertight barrier. Some rings work best with an added hose clamp or compression fitting. Once installed, these rubber or silicone gaskets also absorb pressure and prevent leaks from growing over time.

How do I install a PVC leak-stopping ring?

Once you identify where the leak is occurring, use a clean cloth to wipe away dirt, water, or debris from the pipe surface. Next, stretch or slide the ring over the pipe or fitting. Try to center it over the leak to fully cover the damaged area. Some rings work without clamps, while others may require tightening to ensure a watertight seal.

How long do PVC pipe rings last?

Most PVC leak stoppers last a few months to a couple of years before needing replacement. In low-pressure systems, these rings can last several years if properly installed. When water begins to seep through or around the ring or when the ring no longer fits snugly, it’s usually time to order a replacement.
