π Elite UK β European Supplier of Pipeline Pigging Equipment
Elite UK is a trusted supplier and exporter of pig gauge platesΒ from the United Kingdom to international markets, including Kazakhstan, the Middle East, and Africa. Our gauge plates are precision-engineered for pipeline integrity verification, helping operators identify internal restrictions, dents, or deformations before running expensive inspection or cleaning pigs.
Gauge plates are an essential component of pipeline pigging systems, mounted to the front or rear of a pipeline cleaning pig or caliper pig to assess the internal bore of the pipeline and detect any anomalies that may impede pig passage or damage equipment.
βοΈ Purpose of Pig Gauge Plates
Pig gauge plates serve as mechanical measurement tools that determine the minimum internal diameter (ID) of a pipeline. They are typically machined to a specific diameter, usually 95β97% of the nominal pipeline ID, allowing operators to confirm whether a pipeline is free from obstructions.
When the pig passes through the pipeline, any damage or deformation to the gauge plate indicates a restriction, buckle, or dent, guiding maintenance teams to inspect that section of the pipeline more closely.
