Weldwide Solutions Limited recommends the use of inflatable pipe purging dams, when customers are welding dairy tubes, schedule pipework and all other kinds of cylindrical vessels.

These Purge dams can be pushed and pulled through pipe lengths without friction or resistance. Once positioned, the product is inflated with inert shielding gas to inflate the dam ends and will then automatically release any excess gas to purge the inside of the pipe between the purge dams.

The inflatable purge dam ends require a minimum amount of gas to seal inside the pipe. Since the dams isolate a small volume inside the pipe, fabricators immediately begin to use less gas before it is safe to start welding and can demonstrate to their customers they are achieving a lower carbon footprint.

Purge dams are suitable for purging autogenous weld fit-ups as well as scheduled pipework that requires a gap between two bevelled pipe ends.
