Sava 535879 32"-72" Multi-Size Inflatable Pipe Plug with 6 in. Bypass Product Guide

Pipe Plug Selection Notes

From a selection standpoint, this Sava pipe plug covers a broad nominal pipe size range from 32 to 72 inches, allowing flexibility for various pipe diameters within that span. 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’s pillow-style construction and reinforced NR-SBR rubber with Kevlar cording suit many industrial pipe blocking and flow-through testing applications where inflatables are preferred. The integrated 6-inch bypass allows testing and flow monitoring without removing the plug.

Inflation And Blocking Planning

Plan to inspect the plug prior to use for any cuts, abrasions, or damage to the rubber surface, since even minor damage can impair function. Use a protective sleeve if the pipe environment is abrasive or has irregularities that may damage the rubber. Inflation must be to the specified working pressure and regularly monitored while in use; maintain that pressure to avoid loss of seal or blowout. Adequate blocking or restraint arrangements should be provided following the manual instructions to address internal pipe pressures and prevent plug displacement.
