Foam pigs
 
   
  Foam pigs are an inexpensive and versatile type of pipeline cleaning device. They are lightweight and easy to work with and able to negotiate uncommon piping, fittings, and valves. Sizes range from 2" to 60" standard, with densities of foam ranging from 2-pound, 5-pound, and 8-pound per cubic foot. Standard configurations include bare, criss-cross, wirebrush, plastic bristle, and silicon carbide. A pig style can be identified to best suit your application by reviewing specification sheets found within each product classification. They are used for drying, cleaning, batching, and product removal operations in the oil and gas, municipality, food and beverage, mining, chemical and petrochemical, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Bare Foam Pigs
 
   
  Bare foam pigs are primarily used for drying and sweeping of loose debris, gauging of internal pipe conditions before extensive pigging, sealing behind stuck pig, batching operations, and product removal. Models are available in 2, 5 and 8 pound per cubic foot density. The pig is constructed from an open-cell polyurethane foam with a durable polyurethane elastomer coating on base.

Heavy-density bare pigs are constructed of 8 pound per cubic foot density foam and coated with polyurethane elastomer on base. They are used for drying and sweeping of loose debris. However, other functions include using as a gauging pig for determining internal pipe conditions prior to extensive pigging, using as a sealing pig behind a stuck pig, using for batching and product removal, and for pigging where low volumes and pressures are present. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

Medium-density bare pigs are constructed of 5 pound per cubic foot density foam and coated with polyurethane elastomer on base. They are used for drying and sweeping of loose debris. However, other functions include using as a gauging pig for determining internal pipe conditions prior to extensive pigging, using as a sealing pig behind a stuck pig, using for batching and product removal, and for pigging where low volumes and pressures are present. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

Light-density bare swabs are constructed of 2 pound per cubic foot density foam and coated with polyurethane elastomer on base. They are used for drying and sweeping of loose debris. However, other functions include using as a gauging pig for determining internal pipe conditions prior to extensive pigging, using as a sealing pig behind a stuck pig, using for batching and product removal, and for pigging where low volumes and pressures are present. Options and other configurations include coating at both ends, bullet nose, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

 
 
 
 
 
 
Brush Foam Pigs
 
   
 

Wirebrush foam pigs are primarily used for cleaning lines with buildup or debris in new construction and routine maintenance. Models are available in 2, 5 and 8 pound per cubic foot density. The pig is constructed from an open-cell polyurethane foam with a durable polyurethane elastomer coating in criss-cross pattern, and equipped with wirebrush straps.

Heavy-density wirebrush pigs are constructed of 8 pound per cubic foot density foam, coated with polyurethane elastomer in criss-cross pattern, and equipped with wirebrush straps. They are used for heavy cleaning applications for buildup removal. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

Medium-density wirebrush pigs are constructed of 5 pound per cubic foot density foam, coated with polyurethane elastomer in criss-cross pattern, and equipped with wirebrush straps. They are used for medium cleaning applications for buildup removal. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

Light-density wirebrush pigs are constructed of 2 pound per cubic foot density foam, coated with polyurethane elastomer in criss-cross pattern, and equipped with wirebrush straps. They are used for light cleaning applications for buildup removal, and where low volumes and pressures are present. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications

 
 
 
 
 
 
Coated Foam Pigs
 
 
   
 

Coated foam pigs are used for regular wiping and general cleaning. Models are available in 2, 5 and 8 pound per cubic foot density. The pig is constructed from an open-cell polyurethane foam with a durable polyurethane elastomer coating in varying patterns.

Heavy-density criss-cross pigs are constructed of 8 pound per cubic foot density foam and coated with polyurethane elastomer in criss-cross pattern. They are used for heavy-duty wiping, batching and product-removal applications. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.

Medium-density criss-cross pigs are constructed of 5 pound per cubic foot density foam and coated with polyurethane elastomer in criss-cross pattern. They are used for regular-duty wiping, batching and product-removal applications. Options and other configurations include double-dish, double-nose, pulling rope or cable, transmitter or pinger cavity, jetting bypass ports, magnets, customized diameters and lengths for special pigging applications.
