★ The Method
A controlled trenchless process for residential water service replacement.
The goal is not to overpower the jobsite. The goal is to control the pull.
★ Old Way vs. Pipe Force
✗ Traditional Replacement
Traditional replacement usually means opening the ground to access the line. That can require cutting through yards, landscaping, sidewalks, driveways, irrigation systems, and finished property.
The waterline may get replaced, but the job often leaves restoration work behind.
✓ The Pipe Force Method
The Pipe Force Method uses the existing service route as the path for replacement whenever site conditions allow.
Instead of opening a continuous trench, the system is designed around primary access points, pipe conditioning, controlled scoring, expansion, compaction, mechanical connection, and controlled pulling.
Traditional trenching moves the property to reach the pipe.
Pipe Force uses the pipe path to protect the property.
★ The Process
Eight controlled steps from access point to final connection.
The contractor establishes the proper access points and confirms the pull route. Pipe Force is designed around two primary access points instead of a continuous open trench.
Prep Glide™ is introduced into the host pipe to condition the interior surface and help reduce resistance before the pull begins.
The SR-91™ Scoring Head creates controlled scoring action inside the existing line.
The SR-71™ Expansion & Compaction Wedge follows behind, expanding the host path, compacting displaced material and surrounding soil, and helping guide the new water service line.
The Cable Grip™ mechanically attaches the 3/8" aircraft cable to the replacement waterline through a compression-style wedge connection and 3/4" threaded tie-on point.
ForceCore™ delivers slow, steady, controlled pulling force through the PF-12.
Once the new line is in place, the system is disconnected, components are inspected, and the new water service line is mechanically connected to the customer’s plumbing.
Water line replacement is complete. Customer is happy. On to the next job.
★ Approved Host Pipe Materials
The Pipe Force Method is designed for trenchless replacement of common residential water service lines where site conditions allow a controlled pull.
★ Copper Service
★ Plastic Service
The system is intended for typical residential water service sizes — primarily 3/4” and 1” service lines — depending on field conditions, pipe condition, soil conditions, and the pull path.
★ Field Conditions Still Matter
Pipe Force is a professional trenchless replacement system, not a blind-force pulling method. Existing buried fittings, valves, repair couplings, irrigation tees, severe offsets, unknown transitions, or unusual changes in direction may require exposing the line, performing a spot dig, or modifying the pull plan.
The Pipe Force Method is designed to help plumbers reduce excavation — not ignore real-world jobsite conditions.
★ Why Control Matters
★ The Principle
Resistance is expected. Uncontrolled resistance is the problem.
Pipe Force is built around preparation, alignment, controlled pulling, and purpose-built components that work progressively through the host path.
★ How The Method Wins
The SR-91 scores.
The SR-71 expands, compacts, and guides.
ForceCore™ pulls at the pace the SR-Series was designed to work.
The system does not win by yanking harder.
It wins by pulling smarter.
