Models:
Foam pigs (PUR foam)
Flexible pigs
Cup pigs (steel chassis)
Disc pigs (steel chassis)
Spherical pigs
Usage frequency:
Too rarely:
- Large accumulations of impurities
- Higher effort required once deposits advance
- Higher overall cost
Too often:
- Higher operational costs
- Higher material costs
- Operational losses
- No long-term adverse effects on pipes
Foam Pigs
Advantages:
- Relatively low cost
- Minimal blocking risk
- Limited cleaning capacity
- Temperature range -5/+80°C
- Base material: PU foam
- All models resist petroleum products, methanol and other chemicals as per manufacturer charts.
Simple pig
Criss-cross coated pig
Coated pig (long-run)
Spiral wire-brush pig
Full wire-brush pig
Abrasive-surface pig
Most foam pig types can easily traverse short-radius bends (1.5D), but contact with pipe walls may be reduced, affecting sealing and cleaning efficiency.
Flexible Pigs
Flexible Pigs
Advantages:
- Flexible polyurethane chassis
- Available on request also in Nitrile, EPDM or neoprene
- Available sizes from 2” to 24”
- All components are interchangeable
- Pass small-radius bends in pipes from Ø 3” to 16”
- Low wear on cups and discs
- Maintain optimal sealing in bends and curves due to flexibility
- Professional expertise
- Over 15 years of activity
- Know-how and innovation
- Tailored approach to each project according to specific criteria
