Rethink Your Pipe Repair Operations – 5 Reasons To Avoid Hot Work Permits

In 2021, OSHA is pushing ever harder to reduce the number of injuries and fatal accidents contributed directly to welding, and has labeled such a “high priority” in its operations.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics further declared welding poses unique risks to over 500,000 workers due to explosions, falls, crushing, electrocutions and asphyxiations. (www.wcwelding.com)
With these realities, something different must be implemented to keep your operations safer and more efficient. As a result, the most innovative companies are contributing to the strong and wise decision to turn to the application of Resimac Epoxy coatings for:
- Metal Repair / Cold Weld Alternatives
- Repair of Leaking Pipes and Worn Equipment
- Chemical Tank Linings / Tank Patching
- Chillers and Heat Exchanger Refurbishment
- Corrosion protection
At USI Groups, we have already partnered with the following companies to address their issues with the Resimac solution:
- AK Steel – Dearborn, MI – Certified to ANSI/NSF 61 Approved Products
- A leak was costing almost $4000 a day in chemical treatment costs. This Certified to ANSI/NSF 61 & WRAS Approved Material was the lasting solution and had this pipe back in full operation within 1 hour.
- Pixelle Paper – Chillicothe, OH – Piping Wrap
- Replacement of piping was at a minimum cost of $500K. They were able to repair and extend the life 10 years for under $50K
- Automotive Manufacturing Company – MI – HVAC Fan Shaft Repair
- Facing 4 days of downtime and labor costs of 4 employees, waiting for a replacement shaft would end up costing approximately $5000. The project was completed in 6 hours.
- The Andersons, Toledo, OH – Abrasion and Impact Protection
- Use of Resimac Resimetal 204 UHD for abrasion and impact protection on ductwork and other areas with severe abrasion.
