Hot Tap Sleeves, 910-4 Series

What Are Tapping Sleeves?

Tapping sleeves are advanced equipment which make the process of inserting a branch connection into a live pipeline safe and efficient. They play an important role in pipeline maintenance and expansion as they allow modifications without requiring system shutdowns. 

Tapping sleeves are used to provide a safe and reliable access point on an active pipeline. This allows for the addition of new branches, service connections, or equipment without disturbing the flow of the old pipeline. Tapping sleeves prevent costly and time-consuming shutdowns by providing an effective interface for drilling or tapping operations
