FOR
TOUGHEST CLEANING & SCRAPING OPERATIONS
Mill
scale, pipeline corrosion, even rock-hard mineral deposits are
no match for rugged
Tech-Tube
poly foam pig cleaners equipped with silicon carbide straps or
flame – hardened
wire
brushes. Made from tough polyurethane foam, the Red Series
(5-7 lbs. cu. ft. density)
feature
a hard polyurethane criss cross pattern with spirally applied
silicon carbide straps. Use
this
type for removing hard encrustations in all pipe sizes over
medium length runs. The Scarlet
Series
(8 – 10 lbs. cu. ft. density) criss cross silicon carbide
and wire brush Tech-Tube poly
foam
pigs are recommended for longest runs, multiple turns and
toughest cleaning action.
The
Special Series (70 – 75 lbs. cu. ft. density) studded
Tech-Tube poly foam pigs are used
for
removal of hardest encrustations and used for decoking of
industrial lines.
FOR
EFFICIENT PIPELINE WIPING
Red
or Scarlet criss cross Tech-Tube poly foam pigs feature hard
polyurethane bands spirally
applied
on tough polyurethane foam cores. Density ranges are 5 – 7
lbs. cu. ft. (Red) and 8-10
lbs.
cu. ft. (Scarlet). Both types easily turn 90° ells, cross
tees and slip through valves. The Red
or
criss cross is ideal for new construction and on-stream
cleaning. The Scarlet criss cross
models
are recommended for extra cleaning or wiping and for long
pipeline runs.
FOR
DRYING PIPELINES
When
your pipeline maintenance calls for mild scraping, final
drying or water removal after
hydrostatic
testing, select a Red Swab, Red Bare or Scarlet Bare poly foam
pig. Tech-Tube
bare
poly foam pigs are made of durable, resilience flexible
polyurethane foam ranging in
density
from 1 up to 10 lbs. cu. ft. Tech-Tube poly foam pigs resist
mild acids, caustic
solutions
and hydrocarbons. The cylindrical Red Swab has a vapour seal
on one end. The Red
Bare
and Scarlet Bare models are cylindrical with a bullet nose and
dished end.
SPECIFICATIONS
Tech-Tube
poly foam pigs are industrial pipeline and municipal water
main cleaners and
product
recovery devices. The basic design consists of a flexible,
bullet shaped polyurethane
foam
cylinder. The rear end of the Tech-Tube poly foam pig is
concave in order to allow more
pressure
to be exerted and create a tighter seal against the pipe wall.
This helps to prevent
“by-pass”
of the propelling agent (water, air or product) and virtually
eliminates product
contamination.
Overall
length of Tech-Tube poly foam pigs (Red and Scarlet Series)
are approx 2 times
the
diameter of the pipeline and oversize of the bare pigs varies
between 0.25”and 0.75”
depending
on size of pig and pipe grade
