Foam Pigs For Removing Dusts & Fluids From Cable Ducts & Pipes

Foam Pigs

Foam pigs are used to remove dust or fluids from all pipe materials – they are generally pushed through a pipe using air or water pressure, although they can be supplied with a facility to allow them to be pulled through a pipe by a cable winch.

Foam pigs are used for drying, cleaning, batching, and product removal operation in a variety of applications as they are highly versatile – suitable for short pipelines and lines where there are difficult features or unknown level of debris.

Foam Pigs

The density of the foam pig can be altered depending on the purpose; the general rule is that the greater the density the more wear and better performance the pig will have. However, there are certain pipeline, medium and applications that will require different densities.

Foam pigs are flexible and bi-directional, they will negotiate all conventional pipeline/duct fittings. The sealed end pigs are cylindrically shaped and incorporate an impermeable disc at one end which is bonded to the foam. This version, which by virtue of the sealed end is non-porous, is designed for the more arduous applications such as pipe cleaning and drying.

All SEB range of foam pigs are available to suit pipe/duct ID of between 2″ and 42″ with special requirements available if requested.
