The Safe-T-Stopper is specifically designed to allow for open gut, pipe tees, street tees and No Blow
service tee stopping or tee removal without hazardous release of natural gas.
Simply mount the tool over the tee, remove the cap or plug and set the expandable plug below the branch.
Gas to the service line is now stopped and renewal connections can be made. Use the same procedure to perform service cutoffs.
It's that easy!
