This is the preferred method for use on more difficult
applications (higher temperatures, larger pipe sizes,
etc.). If two freeze plugs are required in a difficult ap-
plication, it may be necessary to use two pipe freeze
units, one for each plug.
• Two freeze plug applications – When two separate
freeze plugs are required to isolate a section of the
system, one freeze head is attached at each point.
Tightly secure the freeze heads to the pipe with ei-
ther the Quick Grip clamp or the Velcro straps. If
using the Quick Grip clamp do not over tighten the
clamp and deform the pipe. See Figure 5.
• If the standard freeze head cannot be used, op-
tional end adapters are available for
copper tube. Freeze gel (if being used) is applied
to the back of the end adapter and to the surface
that contacts the tube. Tightly secure the freeze
heads to the tube with either the Quick Grip clamp
or the Velcro straps. If using the Quick Grip clamp
do not over tighten the clamp and deform the
tube. See Figures 6a, 6b and 6c.
