Description
The Quick-Lock BIG was developed as a separable sleeve for the rehabilitation of man-entry pipeline systems. With the same trusted Quick-Lock technology, this heavy-duty system is engineered to provide a durable and permanent solution for typical types of damage including leaking pipe joints and radial cracking. Nominal size range DN 800 / 32” and above.
The Quick-Lock BIG consists of two-, three-, or four-part segments (shells), depending on the nominal size; one seal; and one set of screws. Made from high-grade stainless steel and an EPDM rubber gasket, Quick-Lock BIG offers superior corrosion resistance and a secure, watertight seal. Its trenchless installation method eliminates the need for digging, ensuring minimal disruption while delivering a fast and efficient repair.
How it works:
- The Quick-Lock BIG uses the principle of compression and is made from the materials 316L and EPDM.
- The separable sleeve is inserted into the pipeline system through the man-entry opening.
- The Quick-Lock BIG clamping tool is used to spread it out at the site of the damage.
What you need:
- The only thing needed to install the Quick-Lock BIG is the clamping tool set. This is also available for lease.
System advantages:
- Simple installation procedure
- Durable materials 316L stainless steel and EPDM
- Articulated supports
- No need for chemicals
- Low investment in system equipment
- Materials are permanently resistant to municipal wastewater

Specification
Materials
The materials used here, 316L stainless steel and EPDM seal, have been proven for decades in the field of pipeline construction. The stainless steel grade 316L lasts virtually forever in municipal wastewater.
The EPDM seal is a state-of-the-art pipe engineering product with long service life and very high wear resistance.

Screw set:
Locking screws, T-nuts, and sheath:
The length and quantity of the locking screws depends on the sheet metal thickness and nominal diameter. In order to use the system properly, it is imperative to meet the following specifications and to use the original screw sets.
The two different screw lengths are provided in red and blue bags to better tell them apart.
The sheath replaces and supplements the function of a washer.
