Pipe Plug, Rigid Core, Bypass 126 Series

The Rigid Core Bypass Pipe Plug 126 Series is a robust solution designed for the most demanding pipeline and bore hole applications. This plug, with its hard core and long-lasting polyurethane inflatable seal, is perfect for isolating pipe sections, performing high-pressure testing, and monitoring fluids in extreme conditions.

Designed for strength, precision, and adaptability, is trusted in industries requiring safe and effective pipeline control, such as oil and gas, mining, infrastructure maintenance, and manufacturing.

How Does a Rigid Core Bypass Plug Work?

A rigid core bypass plug combines the flexibility of inflated sealing with the durability of a solid interior construction. Unlike traditional inflatable plugs, which rely entirely on air pressure to mold and seal, the rigid core adds stability—especially in deep bore holes or high-pressure situations.

The inbuilt bypass channel runs through the middle of the plug, allowing users to pressurize, vent, or monitor pipeline conditions without having to remove the plug. This makes it ideal for tasks requiring continuous access or flow while isolated.

Real-World Applications of the Rigid Core Inflatable Pipe Plug

Rigid Core Bypass Pipe Plug 126 Series is designed for use in a wide range of demanding applications. Its robust construction and bypass functionality make it ideal for locations where sealing and access are essential.

• Borehole Pressure Testing and Sealing: Creates reliable, long-lasting seals in deep boreholes for geotechnical and environmental testing.
• Pipeline Repair, Isolation, and Monitoring: Used to isolate sections of pipe for maintenance or repairs while still allowing pressure monitoring and fluid bypass.
• Oil, gas, and mining operations: Ideal for downhole applications and well interventions which require durability and pressure tolerance.
• Manufacturing and Process Applications: Useful in thermal forming, shrink-fit assemblies, and vulcanizing processes where expanding materials must be controlled under pressure.
• Custom Industrial, Municipal, and Offshore Applications: Adaptable to specific sealing, testing, or flow-through requirements across a wide range of industries.

Whether installed above or below ground, the borehole plug 126 Series provides reliable performance in conditions where other plugs may fail.

FAQs

What is the difference between the Rigid Core Bypass Plug 126 Series and standard inflatable plugs?

The Rigid Core Bypass Plug has a rigid core, which improves stability and strength, making it ideal for high-pressure, isolated, or demanding locations. Unlike most inflatable pipe plugs the rigid core offers greater durability and performance under extreme conditions.

What are the primary applications for the Rigid Core Bypass Plug 126 Series?

The Borehole Pipe Plug 126 Series is ideal for borehole pressure testing, pipeline isolation and repair, fluid monitoring, oil and gas well intervention, and even manufacturing operations such as heat forming and vulcanizing. Its adaptability makes it appropriate for both standard and specialized industrial applications.

How does the bypass channel function in the Rigid Core Bypass plug 126 Series?

The bypass channel goes through the middle of the plug, allowing users to pressurize, vent, and monitor the pipeline while the plug is still in place. This functionality is critical for ensuring continuous flow or monitoring pipeline conditions while isolated.

Can the Rigid Core Plug 126 Series be customized for a specific application?

Yes, we offer customization options for the Rigid Core Plug 126 Series, such as size, pressure rating, chemical, and temperature requirements. Contact us to discuss your specific situation and we will tailor a solution to match.
