4. Securely tape the containment tube to the end of the
packer (Figure 22). Wrap the tape around the metal
end of the packer, down over the curve of the end of
the packer, but do not cover the threaded connector.

5. Use provided elastic bands doubled over individually
every 9"-12" to keep the containment tube neatly
folded and secured to the packer body.
6. Continue building out your packer as normal by
installing the packer sleeve.
For Full Packer
1. Measure the Containment tube to cover the entire
packer, including the hose and locking connector,
See Figure 23.
For the 2" Packer the locking connector does not
need to be covered. The length of the containment
tube should be the length of the 2" packer plus 4".

Packer
2. Using sharp scissors, cleanly and squarely cut the
containment tube to length. A clean, square cut will
minimize tearing when inflating.
3. Place the containment tube over the packer, lining up
with the end of the front metal head of the packer.
4. Place the packer in the middle of the width of the
tube. Fold the edges of the tube up and tight to the
packer.
5. Securely tape the containment tube to the end of the
packer (Figure 24). Wrap the tape around the metal
end of the packer, down over the curve of the end of
the packer, but do not cover the threaded connector.

7 . Continue building out your packer as normal by in-
stalling the packer sleeve.

Containment Liner

Containment liner is required when patching through
bends to prevent wrinkles. Examples can be large holes
or corrosion in a bend. Using containment liner will in-
crease the overall diameter of the packer making it tighter
in pipe but will not restrict the packer from navigating the
bends. Containment liner has loop stitch on the inside.
Containment liner cannot be used as a patch and patch
cannot be used as containment liner.
1. Measure the containment liner to cover the entire
packer end to end, including the metal ends of the
packer. See Figure 25.
