Pop-A-Plug® CPI/Perma Tube Plug

 
Resistant to thermal cycling and able to provide a seal that’s helium-leak tight, Pop-A-Plug CPI/Perma Tube Plugs are the safe, effective, and reliable solution for heat exchanger tube leaks. Rated to 1000 PsiG (68.9 BarG), Pop-A-Plug CPI/ Perma Tube Plugs install in minutes, and their broad expansion range fits multiple gauges reducing inventory and costs. Controlled and repeatable installation minimizes installer fatigue and protects against damage to tubesheet ligaments and adjacent tubesheet joints, extending the life of heat exchangers and reducing costs for retubing. Kits include ten (10) plugs and one (1) Go/No-Go Gage.
