Penetrate tight pipe junctures with the most flexible expansion plugs we offer. To inflate with air, use a hand pump (sold separately). Whether you fill with air or water, a pressure relief valve will prevent over expanding.

Often used for plumbing tests, these plugs thread into tees and inflate to block flow across the pipe. After your test is complete, deflate the bladder to drain the fluid from your line. Leave the plug installed while the draining the pipe—the threads create a leak-free seal, so no water will splash out. Also known as pneumatic plugs, they can lose pressure over time, so they’re designed for temporary seals. To inflate, use a hand pump (not included) since an air compressor might overinflate and burst them.

Plug underground sewage lines, water supply lines, and other pipe that’s hard to reach. These plugs attach to a 6-ft. extension pole with an adapter (both sold separately) so you can place them in confined spaces from a distance. Before placing them in your line, connect them to your air compressor with a hose to inflate them remotely. Also known as pneumatic plugs, they’ll seal wide and out-of-round pipe. Since they can lose pressure over time, they’re intended for temporary seals. Use them in lower-pressure applications than water-inflatable plugs.

These extra-long plugs allow you to seal off two pipes at the same time. They have two separate inflation chambers to release back pressure gradually and prevent splash back as water clears the drain line. To inflate with air, use a hand pump (sold separately). Whether you fill with air or water, a pressure relief valve will prevent over expanding.
