LINE STOPPING is a means of stopping flow and
providing a shut off where none exists. This process
serves as a control, or temporary valve that can
be removed after alterations or valve replacements
have been made. LINE STOPS can be made in pipes
from 1" through 48" and up to 300psi. With conjunction
with HOT TAPPING a bypass system can be installed
to provide uninterrupted service if needed.
