Conical Plugs are especially used for a place which cannot be reached easily. The standard manholes diameters are 600mm and 800mm. If the clients&#; manhole is not big enough for their pipe plugs, they need to broke the manhole head and built it again. This is wasting both money and time and raises the costs. Conical plugs are special products produced for ease of access in such difficult-to-reach areas.

The inflatable pipe plugs are used, in the pipeline testing equipment market, for gravity lines where there is no high pressure. According to the European Standard EN, the test pressure is 0.5 bar for water and 0.2 bar for air. Water head and back pressure can be confused. 1.5 bar back pressure means a water head of 15m and 2 bar back pressure means 20m water head which is too much for a gravity line.

Do not over-inflate inflatable pipe plugs beyond the pressure specified on the instruction card attached to each stopper. The pressures are detailed in the accompanying table. These specified inflation pressures include a safety margin. When inflated as recommended, inflatable pipe plugs can withstand pipe pressures up to 60% of the stopper's internal pressure. For instance, a six-inch stopper inflated to 15 lbs. can resist up to 10 lbs. of pressure in the pipeline.
