Petersen 130-624-20 24" Dia Inflatable Large Pipe Plug, 20" Bypass

Overview

This robust Petersen 130-624-20 Inflatable Large Pipe Plug, with a 24-inch diameter and a 20-inch bypass, provides an ideal and efficient solution for gravity bypassing or sewer bypass pumping in professional plumbing and wastewater management applications. Engineered for reliability and ease of use, these flow-through sewer plugs are essential for maintaining operational flow during maintenance, repair, or inspection tasks.

Avoid costly downtime and messy workarounds. These inflatable pipe plugs offer a secure and adaptable method for temporarily diverting flow, replacing less reliable and more cumbersome traditional plugging methods. The integrated bypass allows for controlled flow-through, crucial for maintaining system operation during critical procedures.

Key benefits include a removable tire valve for simple replacement and the option for a quick disconnect, enhancing user convenience and reducing maintenance time. The design is specifically suited for gravity bypassing and sewer bypass pumping scenarios. Note that NPT bypass plugs are threaded on one end only, and caps/plugs are provided on sizes through 6-inch bypasses. Flanges are not intended for use with non-threaded bypass plugs.

Plumbing contractors, municipal sewer maintenance crews, and wastewater treatment professionals will find these inflatable pipe plugs indispensable for a variety of bypass operations. Their design facilitates efficient flow management, ensuring continuity of service while work is being performed. The removable valve and optional quick disconnect further streamline setup and breakdown, saving valuable time and resources.
