Bare foam pigs
are primarily used for drying and sweeping of loose debris, gauging
of internal pipeline conditions before extensive pigging, sealing behind
stuck pig, batching operations, and product removal. Standard models
are available in 2, 5 and 8 pound per cubic foot density. The foam pigs
are constructed from open-cell polyurethane with a durable polyurethane
elastomer coating on base. Wirebrush foam pigs are primarily used to
clean pipe and hose lines with buildup or debris in new construction
and routine maintenance. Coated models are used for regular wiping and
general cleaning.
