Sava 519423 1.6"-2.8" Multi-Size Inflatable Pipe Plug Product Guide

Pipe Plug Selection Notes

When selecting this multi-size inflatable pipe plug, confirm that the pipe diameter falls within the 1.6 to 2.8 inch range. Because it covers multiple nominal sizes, fit verification is important to confirm sealing and pressure resistance. Confirm backpressure against the size-specific chart or manual for the selected pipe diameter, and keep that check separate from the specified inflation pressure. This plug uses a standard 1/4" male inflation fitting, so compatibility with inflation equipment and hoses should be verified before use.

Inflation And Blocking Planning

Inspect the plug thoroughly prior to use for any cuts, abrasions, or damage to the rubber surface, as compromised areas can degrade performance during inflation. The lightweight design aids handling and placement, but appropriate blocking or restraint should be planned according to the user manual to manage backpressure and maintain seating. Monitor inflation pressure regularly and maintain it at the specified working pressure during the operation—do not leave the plug inflated and unattended for extended periods. Also consider material compatibility and temperature exposure in the pipe to determine if the standard NR-SBR rubber composition meets job requirements.
