New smart service plugs from Hydroscand
Tuesday, 1st June 2021
Hydroscand is launching specially designed marine service plugs in carefully selected materials that enable both reuse and recycling.
Service plugs are important tools for minimising the risk of environmentally harmful leakage, such as during oil changes, service, assembly, and hose changes. Leakage can also lead to high remediation costs.
To help customers reduce their environmental impact, the service plugs are made of oil-resistant TPV, a thermoplastic elastomer. Unlike rubber plugs, Hydroscand’s plugs can be recycled instead of burned.
The material also has properties that allow the plug to sit firmly in place and can be reused for a more extended period. The plug can withstand a temperature range of -40°C to +130°C.
Hydroscand’s new plug is available in many different sizes and can be used for various jobs: wherever you need to plug something that is not pressurised temporarily. They work excellently in hose breakage, for example, where you want to protect the environment but also need to ensure that as little as possible is lost from the system. They also work to plug a drain to avoid unpleasant odours.
The new service plugs are, therefore, suitable for those working in areas such as hydraulics, plumbing, workshop service, shipping, and more.
