ABSTRACT:
A safe, easy and fast procedure and apparatus for sealing by welded steel plugs branch lines connected to conduits through which gas is flowing, uses a low-carbon steel plug which does not develop cracks on cooling from welding temperature; such plug is arranged to carry a resilient sealing and holding element for locating such plug in place in a cut branch line during welding as well as providing a seal against gas passage during welding. A hard metal die element is provided to properly enlarge and form the cut branch line to accept the plug and resilient sealing and holding element.
