ABSTRACT:
A pipe repair bypass apparatus which enables residual water in pipes to flow without touching the area of the pipe to be repaired by soldering, is disclosed. The bypass apparatus includes a flexible disc slightly greater in its outer diameter than the inner diameter of the pipe to be repaired. The disc has a central opening which receives one end of elongated flexible tubing. A rigid tube is slideably arranged on the flexible tubing and serves to aid in inserting the disc and flexible tubing into the pipe to be repaired. When the apparatus is disposed inside a pipe, the disc acts as a dam for any water in the pipe with the water eventually flowing through the flexible tubing thereby avoiding the repair area.
