Line Stops are used to temporarily shut down a pipeline system to complete modifications or repairs. They allow a system to operate as usual without any interruption of service. Line Stops can be performed on almost any kind of pipe with pressures up to 900 psi @ 100º F.

The Line Stop operation consists of a special flanged fitting, a temporary valve, and our actuator. The fitting is installed and tested, the temporary valve is installed, and the hot tap is completed. After the hot tap, we install the line stop actuator and insert the stopping head into the line.
