The Pipestoppers® Division of Huntingdon Fusion Techniques HFT® design and manufacture a range of Standard Inflatable Stoppers, which come in two formats: Cylindrical and Spherical. These versatil Standard Cylindrical and Spherical Inflatable Stoppers are used to service a wide variety of industrial applications and are an easy way to stop the flow of gas or liquid along a pipe or duct and to prevent the collection of debris or ingress of unwanted material or animals. Our Standard Range of Standard Cylindrical and Spherical Inflatable Stoppers come in sizes 1 – 96" (25 to 2,440 mm). and are manufactured with a high quality, strong internal bag, covered in waterproof sewn polyurethane coated nylon. Each Stopper has a 1.3 m hose length, 10 mm ID, 12 mm OD and each are fitted with a standard Schrader Valve. The recommended maximum temperature for the Standard Inflatable Stoppers to withstand is 90ºC (194ºF). Inflation is carried out with a foot pump or air compressor. The Standard Cylindrical and Spherical Inflatable Stoppers, when deflated, can be passed through relatively small holes in pipes. This allows them to be used for many applications where access to the job site is difficult. Typical applications for the Standard Cylindrical and Spherical Inflatable Stoppers include: Plumbing operations. Low-pressure hydrostatic tests. On-site thermoforming of bends in ducting and conduit materials. Fibre-optic construction projects. Concrete pipe joint testing. Where only small entry ports are available. Isolating opening from environmental contamination. Sealing pipes and ducts during washing of factories and larger plants or products.
