TUBE PLUGS

When a leaking tube is found, tube plugs are used as a quick, cost effective way to reduce vessel downtime and get the unit back on line. The tube plug material should match the tube material being plug. Standard One-Piece Plugs are suitable for pressures up to 150 psi and easy to install with just a hammer, no special tools are required.

GTT OnSET offers a selection of Tube Gauges for measuring tubes and tube sheet holes for making the selection of tube plugs easier and more accurate. Please look at our measuring section.
