FAST AND EASY FIX FOR A WATER PIPE LEAK!

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Carefully place the prepared flat rubber gasket directly over the pinhole leak on the pipe, ensuring it completely covers the hole. Position the worm clamp around the pipe, making sure the clamp's band is centered directly over the rubber gasket and, by extension, the leak. Using a 6-in-1 screwdriver (or a flathead screwdriver or socket wrench that fits the clamp's screw head), tighten the worm clamp firmly. Continue tightening until the rubber gasket is compressed securely against the pipe, creating a watertight seal. Ensure the clamp is not overtightened to avoid damaging the pipe, but tight enough to prevent any water from escaping.

Goal: Position the prepared rubber gasket over the leak and secure it tightly with the hose clamp using a screwdriver.

Okay, got that there. And now we'll put this back on here and you just want to make sure that you have the clamp right over that little hole. And that's about all that you need to make sure, right?
