How an 8" Inflatable Line Stop Sealed a Toxic Pipeline on a Remote Mountainside

A mining company in Turkey faced a critical challenge: install a valve on an HDPE pipeline carrying toxic material — with only 6 hours of downtime and no room for error.

Using an 8" PeteStop® inflatable line stop, contractors safely isolated the line without exposing the product or requiring large excavations.

✔️ Positive seal at up to 2 Bar (29 PSI)
✔️ No product exposure
✔️ Fast, controlled shutdown in rugged terrain
