Donut-shaped inflatable plug

Industrial shut-off with custom inflatable plug – provided by FabriQ

In collaboration with Buitink Technology , FabriQ Innovation AS offers customized inflatable solutions for demanding industrial applications – developed where standard products are not sufficient.

In this example, Buitink has developed a donut-shaped inflatable plug that is mounted around a flange to close a duct. The solution functions as an industrial shut-off valve in an environment with low concentrations of gaseous substances such as aromatics, benzene, toluene, methanol, xylene and styrene – at room temperature.

The plug's working pressure is 2 bar, and it is inflated via a standard car valve, in line with the customer's specifications.
