Filming Pigs supplier and exporter

Filming Pigs

Efficiently control corrosion in pipelines.

Filming pigs were designed to apply any type of coating or film on the interior of pipe walls. In order to apply a film, the pig is designed with a by-pass disc and a spreading disc which is machined as per specification requirements. The unique conenose has greater maneuverability around short bends, such as 45°’s, 90°’s and T’s.

Filming pigs, like all solid cast urethane products, can be manufactured in the variety of durometers available for flexibility or more chemical resistant. Filming pigs are available in 2”, 3”, 4”, 6”, 8”, 10”, 12” and 16″ sizes. Filming pigs can also be machined to odd sizes. Exact outside diameters.




What are Filming Pigs?

Filming Pigs are specialized pipeline pigging tools designed to apply a thin protective or lubricant coating inside pipelines. Unlike cleaning or maintenance pigs, which remove deposits, filming pigs are used to deposit a layer of protective fluid, chemical inhibitor, or lubricant on the internal pipeline surface.

They are usually made of polyurethane, rubber, or other elastomers, mounted on a mandrel or solid pig body, and are often used in oil, gas, water, and chemical pipelines where corrosion prevention or lubrication is required.


Key Features of Filming Pigs

  • Uniform Coating – Ensures an even layer of protective film inside the pipeline.

  • Durable Material – Made from polyurethane or elastomers that withstand the pipeline flow and chemicals.

  • Customizable Design – Can be fitted with wiping elements, discs, or brushes for optimal film application.

  • Safe & Efficient – Deposits films without damaging the pipeline wall.

  • Versatile Application – Works in oil, gas, water, and chemical pipelines.

  • Replaceable Components – Wipers, discs, and other attachments can be replaced to maintain efficiency.

  • Applications of Filming Pigs

  • Oil & Gas Pipelines – Depositing corrosion inhibitors or lubricants before shutdown or maintenance.

  • Water Pipelines – Applying protective coatings to prevent rust or biofilm formation.

  • Chemical Pipelines – Safe application of anti-corrosion chemicals.

  • Pipeline Commissioning – Prepares pipelines for service by applying protective films.

  • Maintenance Operations – Maintains internal pipeline integrity and reduces corrosion risk.

  • We pride ourselves on our responsiveness to our customers’ needs.
