Foam Pigs - Bare & Disc Types
Foam Pigs for Pipeline Cleaning & Maintenance
Available in Bare Foam & Foam Disc Configurations
PSSS supplies a wide range of foam pigs - also known as swabs, foamies, or scrapers - designed for effective pipeline cleaning, drying, batching, and product displacement. These versatile tools are widely used across oil, gas, water, and industrial processing pipelines to maintain flow efficiency and reduce downtime.
Types of Foam Pigs We Offer
We stock both bare foam pigs and foam disc pigs in various densities and sizes, suitable for most pipeline applications.
Bare Foam Pigs
Bare foam pigs are a simple, economical option for general-purpose cleaning and drying tasks. Each pig is constructed from high-quality polyurethane foam and features a polyurethane elastomer-coated base for added durability.
- Light Density Bare Pigs - Ideal for light-duty swabbing and drying
- Medium Density Bare Pigs - Suitable for general cleaning and product displacement
- Heavy Density Bare Pigs - Designed for tougher cleaning operations or where higher pressure is involved
Foam Disc Pigs
Foam disc pigs feature abrasion- and chemical-resistant polyurethane elastomer coatings, making them suitable for more demanding pipeline environments. The disc profile offers enhanced scraping and sealing capabilities.
- Medium Density Disc Pigs - Balanced for effective cleaning with good durability
- Heavy Density Disc Pigs - Built for heavy-duty applications and higher resistance
Available Density Grades
We offer foam pigs in four standard foam densities to suit a range of applications:
- Low Density: 26–28 kg/m³
- Intermediate Density: 35–40 kg/m³
- Medium Density: 80–112 kg/m³
- Heavy Density: 128–160 kg/m³
