GripTight MAX® Test Plug

Brand: Curtiss-Wright Corporation

Streamline maintenance projects and avoid extended schedules with a high pressure hydrostatic test plug designed for safe and reliable pressure testing of open-end pipe, pipelines, piping systems, pipe spools, and pressure vessels.

Conventional hydro test methods for open-end pipe typically involve welding on end caps, performing the pressure test, cutting off end caps, and re-beveling the pipe.

A time consuming process that can extend project schedules.

EST Group’s GripTight MAX High Pressure Test Plug significantly cuts down testing time and additional man-hours by eliminating the need to weld on/cut off end caps, allowing you to self-perform pressure tests much faster.

Our high pressure hydrostatic test plug also features patented dual-serrated grippers that offer additional gripping points on the pipe ID, providing the strength necessary to safely test at higher pressures.

As hydrostatic pressure increases the seal and grippers work together to form a leak-tight seal.
