So, Exactly What Are Goldbacks?

Goldback notes are gold-minted bills that look a lot like traditional cash, conveniently minted in small-denomination notes to enable daily utility. Their design ensures a clear baseline value because they are made with actual gold! Most modern transactions are digital nowadays; some are even high-tech-digital, like cryptocurrencies (which we also accept now). Digital payments dominate the modern financial world. Yet gold is still relevant everywhere on earth because gold is timeless. Throughout human history, gold has been revered as a store of value and a symbol of wealth. With the introduction of the Goldback currency, gold plays a relevant new role in the modern world. These minted gold bills combine the intrinsic value of gold with the convenience of paper money. This offering makes for a unique and tangible alternative for secure transactions.

CIPP is a method used worldwide to repair broken or damaged pipe sections. This method is known for its quick return on investment, easy learning curve, effectiveness, and reliability, often lasting for decades. RIDGID provides everything needed to get started.

What is CIPP?

process for ridgid pipe patching

CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) patching is a practice of efficiently repairing damaged lines. It’s practical and cost-effective. CIPP is quickly becoming a frontrunner in trenchless pipe rehabilitation. Here is the process, more or less:

  1. Using a camera, inspect the damaged pipe, clear away any blockage and clean the line of debris.
  2. Navigate the Packer with the patch to the patch location, inflate the packer, and let the resin set for its set time.
  3. After the resin has cured, deflate the packer and remove it.

Work time can be as little as fifteen minutes but requires a minimum of 90 minutes for the resin to set. CIPP can be a profitable standalone business or a significant addition to businesses already offering trenchless rehabilitation.

What systems and kits does RIDGID offer?

RIDGID is offering four starter systems and four patch kits. The difference between a starter system and a patch kit is a starter kit has all the tools needed to perform the patch job, including the packer. While the patch kit includes the resin and the packer sleeves, they are sold separately, but each patch kit corresponds to a starter system based on pipe size. Ridgid’s smallest pipe patch system is for a 2-inch pipe with options up to 6 inches.

There are four different options for starter kits:
