One pipe is pulled (slipped) into another, and in some cases, the annular space is then pumped with grout to seal off the new pipe into place.
Note: In the photos above, each HDPE pipe joint was fused together prior to pulling the line further into place

Slip lining was the method chosen for the job in Rochester, NY in the photos above. The existing line was a rough cut tunnel, so a line was pulled into place to replace the existing line.
