It offers advances in performance and safety to improve pressure testing of pipe, pipelines and pressure vessels.
The GripTight庐 Isolation Plug integrates double block and bleed sealing technology with EST Group's reliable GripTight庐 Gripping design. The GripTight庐 grippers enhance operational safety, minimizing the risk of accidental plug blowout or expulsion due to improper use or unexpected upstream pressure in the line. The isolation plug is capable of withstanding upstream pressures up to 1,440 psig. As the upstream pressure increases, the GripTight庐 grippers actually use the pressure to grip more securely against the pipe's inner diameter.
