Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to take the equipment offline or degas it to use the PinHold kit?

No. The PinHold kit is designed to seal pinhole-size SF6 leaks without degassing the system, letting you stop the leak in the field and avoid a costly outage or full gas evacuation.

What kind of leaks does the PinHold kit repair?

It's built for pinhole-size leaks in SF6 insulated equipment. Fast-curing epoxy holds a PinHold disc in place over the leak; once the epoxy cures, a bolt is tightened down to seal it off permanently.

How many repairs does one kit cover?

Each kit contains enough supplies for 5 separate leak repairs—5 PinHold discs and bolts plus all consumables—so the per-repair cost is low compared to the price of a single outage or professional leak repair.

What's included in the kit—do I need to buy anything else?

Everything needed is in the box: fast-drying epoxy resin, 5 PinHold discs and bolts, a preset torque wrench, sandpaper, alcohol wipes, mixing cups and sticks, gloves, and a small waste bag. No extra supplies required to complete a field repair.

How does the repair actually work?

Prep the area with the included sandpaper and alcohol wipes, mix and apply the fast-curing epoxy to hold the PinHold disc over the leak, then once cured, tighten the bolt with the preset torque wrench to seal the leak.

Why use a PinHold repair instead of replacing the component?

A pinhole leak can cause major SF6 loss and emissions reporting issues, but full component replacement means an outage and gas evacuation. The PinHold kit lets a field tech stop the leak in minutes without interrupting service—clear ROI against the cost of an outage.
