ABSTRACT:
Core spray line riser repair apparatus and methods for axially restraining a reactor core spray line riser to a T-box are described. In one embodiment, the repair apparatus includes a sleeve, a threaded draw bolt extending through the axial bore, and a threaded block. The sleeve includes a substantially cylindrical main body having an axial bore extending therethrough and a flange at one end of the main body. The sleeve is configured to be inserted into the T-box until the flange abuts against the T-box. The draw bolt is configured to extend through the sleeve flange, the sleeve bore, and an opening in the core spray line riser. The draw bolt engages the block to draw the block in tight engagement with the core spray line riser.
