Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most common questions about pneumatic plugs, mechanical stoppers and leak testing.

A pneumatic pipe plug is an inflatable device inserted into a pipe to seal it temporarily, allowing repairs, pressure & leak testing or flow diversion without excavating or cutting the pipe. They are used in municipal sewers, drainage, chemical industry, gas and drinking-water networks.
Plugs with bypass include integrated tubes (1" or 2") that let flow pass while the pipe is blocked — essential on live sewer networks where service cannot be stopped. Plugs without bypass create a full hermetic seal, ideal for pressure & leak testing and dry repairs. We offer both for any diameter from Ø40mm to Ø2200mm.
In Europe, leak testing of sewer pipes follows EN 1610, which sets out air and water test procedures, admissible loss limits and reporting requirements. ObturaPipe supplies the plugs and measuring equipment needed to pass these certification tests.
Trenchless technology delivers savings of 40% to 70% versus traditional open-trench replacement, removing the cost of excavation, pavement demolition, spoil haulage and reinstatement. Intervention time drops from weeks to hours or days.
Yes. All pneumatic plugs, mechanical stoppers and equipment are made by certified European manufacturers with CE marking, complying with ISO standards and pressure-equipment directives. They are valid for works tendered by public authorities across Spain.
