Pipe Shields Inc. manufactures pre-insulated pipe supports, slides, guides and anchors and is a subsidiary of Piping Technology and Products, Inc.
The photograph above shows a launcher-receiver designed to be installed in a six inch pipe to launch and receive pipeline pigs. Pigs can be used for cleaning or for separation of two products in the same pipeline. This launcher-receiver was one of two built by the SWECO Fab, Inc. division of Piping Technology & Products, Inc. for a major Gulf Coast Refinery.
