The unique design of the UT-C cup offers the cleaning advantages of a scraper cup and the flexibility inherent in a conical cup. To provide a longer cup life, the wear surface of the cup is three times larger than any other UT-style cup on the market.

The pressure of the pipeline product presses the cutting edge firmly against the pipe wall, ensuring an optimum seal. The flex area between the shank and the cleaning surface allows the cup to traverse reductions in the pipe bore caused by buckling of, or anomilies in the pipeline.
