Mazco Website Promotes Unique Tool

Mazco is pleased to introduce a new user-friendly website for Mazco Products and Services, featuring the innovative Safe-T-Stopper line of stopper tools.

The Safe-T-Stopper allows for the quick removal of service tees while the main gas line remains operational, preventing any product release. This ensures employee safety and promotes a healthier environment.

Mazco has also developed the Safe-T-L-Stopper for removing elbow swing joint service connections. Owner Ivan Mazur created these tools to address the need for safer servicing of the millions of service tees and compression fittings in utility gas lines across North America.

Unlike previous methods that required stopping the main gas line, the Safe-T-Stopper interrupts the gas supply, allowing safe maintenance without exposing workers to hazardous conditions. These tools are designed with worker safety in mind, as natural gas is flammable and potentially harmful.

The Safe-T-Stopper operates at up to 100 psi and is compatible with various service connection sizes. The Safe-T-L-Stopper is specifically made for elbow swing joint connections.

The Mazco website also includes videos demonstrating the Safe-T-Stopper in action, targeting industry professionals, as well as various types of service tees. Additionally, the site features a blog with news about new Mazco products in development and information about local distributors.

Valve Changer Tooling

Mazco manufactured valve changers work on valves with oblong port plug valves (Mueller, AY McDonald, Dresser, Rockford Eclipse, and other manufacturers) used on service risers and meter valves. These units are available in sizes from .300″ to 2″. All valve changers are Professional Engineer certified.

These valve changers work on valves for service risers, meter valves and other main line isolation devices. This technology allows for valve changes up to 100 PSI in a gas-free environment. Changing valves can be done in a few minutes and does not require eliminating flow from the source.

Manufactured valve changers are customizable to irregular port configuration and sizes and are customizable to virtually any length or diameter.

For more information on this device, contact your nearest distributor or Mazco directly.

Tapered Self-Threading Plugs

Mazco manufactures tool adapters and tapered threaded plugs for stopping gas flow in service tee connections. They are available from 1/4″ and up, for threading into concentric holes drilled in the main or perforator type holes in the main.

Mazco manufacturers tooling to remove perforators on clamp-on or welded service tee connections and installing these tappping plugs as the initial closure to stop flow. Clamp-on devices can be completely removed from the main line without interupting main line flows.

Mazco also manufactures over-drilling tooling for torched or burnt holes in the main, to make them concetnric and allow the plug to be inserted.

Contact your nearest distributor or Mazco direct or more information.

Drilling Tool

Mazco is excited to introduce a new drill for the Safe-T-Stopper line of products. This drilling tool is used to drill holes on the backside of an elbow. Then a rubber plug is inserted, thereby stopping the gas to the branch outlet, so abandonment procedures performed without blowing gas.

Mazco Introduces Half Collars

Mazco has recently introduced redesigned half collars for its safety stopper equipment tooling. These half collars secure the tooling to the service tee connection by a rigid loop under the branch connection. These collars provide fail-safe security against tool movement.

The original half collars and safety strap security retention system are still available and promoted as part of the tool in the event of branch connections (couplings or elbows) that may interfere with rigid loop half collars.

If you have any questions regarding this technology, please contact one of our distributors or Mazco direct.
