Heat Exchanger Tube Plugs
Pop-A-Plug®
Designed as a fast and safe way to seal leaking heat exchanger and condenser tubes. Pop-A-Plug tube plugs are resistant to thermal cycling and can provide a seal that is helium leak tight. A proven long-term performer as well in thermal and nuclear power generating stations and the Pop-A-Plug tube plug features internally serrated rings designed to maintain a leak tight seal under extreme thermal and pressure cycling.
Pop-A-Plug tube plugs install using a controlled force which protects against damage to tubesheet ligaments and adjacent tubesheet joints. It reduces downtime, eliminates welding and explosives, extending the life of your heat exchanger and reducing total operating cost.
Operating pressures up to 7,000 PsiG (480 BarG). Tube sizes for 0.472” to 2.067” (11.99mm to 52.50mm) I.D. tubes. Helium leak tight to 1 x 10-6 cc/sec. Larger sizes available. Removable for retubing. Compliant with quality assurance systems including; ANSI N45.2, 10 CFR 50 Appx. B, 10 CFR 21.
