Sava 60419 8"-16" Multi-Size Inflatable Pipe Plug Product Guide

Pipe Plug Selection Notes

The Sava 60419 covers a broad range of nominal pipe sizes from 8 to 16 inches, allowing one plug to serve multiple needs within that range. From a selection standpoint, it is essential to verify the exact pipe diameter and condition to confirm compatibility. The plug’s NR-SBR rubber combined with Kevlar tire cording offers reinforced strength compatible for demanding commercial and municipal applications. Confirm backpressure against the size-specific chart or manual for the selected pipe diameter, and keep that check separate from the specified inflation pressure.

Inflation And Blocking Planning

Before deployment, inspect the plug for cuts, abrasions, or other rubber damage, as any visible damage can lead to failure under pressure. Use protective sleeves if the pipe interior is rough or abrasive to reduce damage when inserting or retrieving the plug. Monitor and maintain the specified inflation pressure throughout the job; do not leave the plug inflated and unattended for extended periods. Plan for blocking or bracing to handle the expected backpressure based on job conditions and reference the user manual for restraint requirements.
