Pig Type

PITBOSS_PIG_170x170

Aggressiveness

High_Aggressiveness

Diameter Range

6-42_Pigging_140x72-2

Heavy-duty, designed for aggressive cleaning and configurable to customer specifications, pencil brush pigs take aim at finely divided black powder and hard scale deposits in internal pits, including magnetic scale. That makes them ideal for pre-inline inspection (ILI) cleaning, which is essential to improving run result accuracy. 

Specifications

  • 6-inch through 42-inch.

Key Features

  • Equipped with a steel body, spring steel wire brushes and polyurethane bumpers and discs. 

  • Multiple brushes made of high tensile steel or posistrand filament help maintain cleaning efficiency even when the pig travels long distances.

  • Brushes are made to conform to the inside diameter of the pipe and provide 100 percent circumferential cleaning. 

  • Removable bypass plugs provide a jetting action that further improves cleaning effectiveness. 

  • Easily change the number of discs and brushes, add transmitters for tracking or make modifications for very heavy wall pipe or to increase bypass. 

Configurations

  • 5D-1BR traverses a 1.5 DR bend.

  • 4D-2BR and 4D-2BR PitBoss™ traverse 3 DR or larger bends.

Common Applications

  • Removing black powder and hard, scaly or ferrous deposits. 

  • Controlling corrosion. 

  • Pre-ILI cleaning.
