GripTight® Isolation & Double Block and Bleed Plugs

Isolate and monitor explosive vapors during hot work, then hydrotest the weld.

Isolate and monitor potentially explosive vapors during hot work, and hydrotest weld connections, with one easy-to-operate tool. The dual port design creates a positive pressure barrier between the seals, safely isolating hot work from any residual upstream gases; so little water is needed that testing is typically done with a simple hand pump. GripTight Isolation Plugs integrate a Double Block and Bleed test plug with GripTight grippers, minimizing the risk of blowout or expulsion from unexpected upstream pressure.

ACTS is Pop-A-Plug® & GripTight®’s sole agent in Egypt, supplying the GripTight® Isolation & Double Block and Bleed Plugs to oil & gas, petrochemical and power generation plants nationwide from our office in Sheikh Zayed City, Giza. Sizing and selection are handled by our own application engineers, with aftermarket support and technical services once the unit is in service.
