Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bypass flange made of?

It features lightweight aluminium construction to provide improved flexibility and durability.

What is the shelf life of Cherne pneumatic plugs?

Cherne offers a 2-year warranty on all pneumatic plugs (from the date of manufacture) when kept under controlled conditions and at temperatures between 0 and 125 degrees Fahrenheit.

How often should the pressure of the plugs be monitored?

The inflation pressure should be checked and maintained a minimum of once per 4 hours while in use.

What will happen during over-inflation or under-inflation of the plugs?

  • Over-inflation: It may cause the plug to dislodge and rupture at extreme velocity.
  • Under-inflation: It may cause the media and the plug restrained to dislodge from the pipe.
