Date: March 1999
Supersedes: n/a
STOPPLE Plugging Machines serve as temporary
block valves installed anywhere in a piping system.
They are used to isolate a section of line for repairs
or additions without interruption of service.
Typical Setup
STPPL
In the pipeline industry, it is sometimes necessary
to isolate a section of pipe without interrupting
the service to a customer, whether that customer
is a large user such as a steel mill or a private
homeowner. The same necessity may also arise in a
refinery or a petrochemical plant where it is desirable
®
to avoid the shutdown of an entire unit. STOPPLE
Plugging Equipment has been developed by T.D.
Williamson, Inc., to safely meet these requirements.

Hydraulic Cylinder

The STOPPLE Plugging Machine consists of three
major sections: a hydraulic cylinder or jackscrew,

STOPPLE® Fittings with LOCK-O-RING® Flanges* are welded on each end of the section to be isolated. Bypass
fittings with LOCK-O-RING Flanges and equalization fittings are welded to the line.
A SANDWICH® Tapping Valve* is mounted on each fitting and taps are made through the valves into the

Typical Applications
Installation Anywhere in a Piping System
As Typical Equipment Isolation
Isolation for Repair
TDW Services technicians are available around
the clock to assist plant operators in tapping and
plugging applications.
Suction Header
A compressor breakdown in the vapor recovery
section of a large refinery created a problem for
the operating company when a 20-inch block valve
failed to hold.
Compressor
Faulty 20” Valve
A means was needed for isolating the compressor
for repairs. This isolation was accomplished with
TDW tapping and plugging equipment.
STOPPLE®
Plugging Machine
While the compressor was isolated and repairs
were completed, a pair of new 10-inch block valves
were installed on the suction lines leading to the
compressor. This was done because the faulty
20-inch block valve could not be removed from the
suction line.
New 10” Valves
As Typical Valve Replacement
Line Blocked for Modification
An 18-inch butterfly valve in a line carrying air to
a cat cracker regenerator failed to operate properly.
Air Filter
TDW STOPPLE Plugging equipment blocked
the line temporarily while the valve was removed.
However, after removing the valve, inspectors
found it to be non-repairable. A decision was made
to reinstall the valve, locking it in full open position.
Workmen then modified the system to permit
operation of the air line until the new valve could be
delivered. The plugging machine was removed and
®
a LOCK-O-RING Plug was installed.

surfaces and are supplied to match ASME Class 150,
300, 400 or 600 flanges.
The SANDWICH Valve is bidirectional and can be
installed on the fitting in any direction as long as the
bore of the valve is in line with the fitting bore. The
valve can be oriented parallel or perpendicular to the
pipeline to fit the excavation.
Other design features of the SANDWICH Valve
include an oversized bore, positive shutoff, a built-in
pressure equalizing valve and integral flange studs.

Description
T.D. Williamson, Inc. provides a variety of
alternatives to pipeline maintenance needs. The
Steel Repair Sleeve is one such option. With the
Steel Repair Sleeve, repairs can be made without
shutting down the pipeline. Steel Repair Sleeves
are available in a variety of sizes, from 2- through
48-inch.
The Steel Repair Sleeves are sold in the HalfSole configuration. The Half-Sole segment can be
used as a pad or cradle while a pair of Half-Sole
segments can be used to create a full-encirclement
steel sleeve. Steel Repair Sleeves may be made
from rolled plate material. This maintenance option
is ideal to repair defects in pipelines.
There are four types of material available for the
Steel Repair Sleeves, two pressure-rated steels and
two structural-grade steel. The pressure-rated
steel sleeves can be used to repair leaking and
non-leaking defects while the structural-grade
steel sleeves can function as reinforcement for
a defective area.
Features
The Steel Repair Sleeves can be used for
internal and external corrosion, gouges, dents,
grooves, arc burns, cracks, defective girth
welds, laminations and leaks.
Pressure containing sleeves feature a wall
thickness equal to or greater than required for
the maximum allowable operating pressure
or the full strength of the pipe being repaired.
The Steel Repair Sleeve material is certified
and the carbon equivalent (long formula)

LOCK-O-RING Flanges are mounted on STOPPLE

®
Providing a pressure-tight seal over the tapped
holes, LOCK-O-RING Flanges eliminate the need for
valves until such time as valves may be necessary.
For example, fittings with LOCK-O-RING Flanges and
Plugs are installed on the line during construction.
Later, when branch connections are needed, valves
can be installed on the fittings and the LOCK-ORING Plugs removed with a tapping machine. In
some applications, LOCK-O-RING Flanges entirely
eliminate the need for permanent valves.

Description
Tapping fittings are full-branch split tees designed
for use when connecting branch lines. They are
offered in sizes 4- through 12- and 16-inch and
meet B31.4 specifications for use in pipeline
transportation systems for liquid hydrocarbons and
other liquids. Fittings are equipped with RF or RTJ
flanges.
Fitting sleeves are an extruded type design.
They are manufactured from a pressure-vessel
quality, normalized, killed carbon steel plate
with hardness below Rc22.
The Charpy impact value of the sleeves
at -50°F is 15 ft-lbs average with 12 ft-lbs
minimum.

Description
Features
The M-2 Plastic THINSULATOR pipe insulator
is a high-density, polyethylene product, injection
molded to provide low cost insulators of highest
quality. This high-density polyethylene gives the
M-2 such strength that it is made more compact
than other insulators.
®
The flexible M-2 Plastic THINSULATOR
conforms to the pipe for uniform coating
loading. Its low friction coefficient enables it to
slide easily inside the casing.
Electrical properties include its dielectric
strength: short time, 1/8” thickness, 500
volts/.001 inches (D149-64).
The casing insulator has robust mechanical
properties. The tensile strength is rated at
4,000 psi at 20 inches/minute. Elongation is
25% at 20 inches/minute. It is resistant to
impact fracture, with a notched toughness
rating of 9 ft. lbs./in. (5 Joules/cm).
For best results, do not use above 120°F
(50°C).

Description
Features
Standard Centering Cradles are used to center
the pipe in the end of the casing, making it easy to

carry the weight of backfill dirt and insulate the pipe
from the casing. They are recommended for use with
TDW Concentric Support Insulators. Nonconcentric
3-Way Cradles restrain pipe in all directions. They
are used with U-SEAL™ Casing Seals.
3-Way Cradle
Concentric Support Insulators feature larger
support runners at the bottom to center the
pipe inside the casing.
Ample clearance is allowed by the smaller
runners to permit free movement into the
casing. Cables and runners are nonconductive.
This insulator is easily installed using either a
speed wrench or ratchet.
Ends joined by
rubber tubing over
swaged thimbles.
Note: 3-Way Cradles cannot be secured to pipeline and should
not be used as a substitute for insulators.
