Once the pump stops, the pistons of the progressive metering device will stop in their current positions. When the pump starts supplying lubricant again, the pistons will carry on where they left.

The PYPLOK® connecting system is a weld-less, thread-less way to join pipe. Using a portable, hand-held installation tool, couplings are cold worked and permanently compressed onto the piping, forming a permanent leak-tight seal.
Why Pyplok?
- Swage your fittings in seconds, dramatically reducing your downtime during repairs.
- Skip the expensive certified welders and fire watch personnel
- Forget about hot work permits – Pyplok® fittings are swaged cold
- Reduce your chemical waste disposal costs – Pyplok® doesn’t require acid pickling and neutralizing
- Avoid costly NDT (radiography, x-ray) verification by using a simple “Go-No-Go” inspection gauge for your Pyplok® fittings
- Remove the time-consuming purging of gases or fluids procedure from your process
- Set it and forget it – properly swaged and pressure tested Pyplok® fittings will go many years before needing to be replaced
