Pop-A-Plug® Tube Stabilizers
Locks weakened or fractured tubes in place until retubing.
Effectively stabilizes weakened or fractured heat exchanger and condenser tubes, from high pressure feedwater heaters to surface condensers. Available in solid rod or cable configuration and in any length. The unique Pop-A-Plug anchoring system eliminates cable or rod movement during operation, so fractured or deteriorated tubes stay securely supported until retubing or sleeving can be performed.
