At Wolf Creek Portable Piping Products, we’re proud to be a founding member of the Temporary Piping and Fitting Manufacturing Association (TPFMA). In fact, we’re the only member of TPFMA! As a leading supplier of unique pipe and fittings for temporary piping systems, we specialize in serving a niche — and essential — market. Our customers represent the industries that are literally moving our country forward, ranging from construction and water/fluid system contractors to mining, fraction operations, and governmental and commercial entities.

The Wolf Creek team knows temporary piping and fittings inside and out, so it only made sense to create our very own “association” that reflects our commitment to all things portable piping — without taking ourselves too seriously. This November, the TPFMA is excited to be celebrating something special: the second annual International Suction & Discharge Month! It’s our way of poking a little fun at ourselves while highlighting the importance of protecting your temporary piping and pumps.

Here are some more ways to make the most of Suction & Discharge Month:

Be ready when a hurricane hits

Suction & Discharge Month occurs during hurricane season, one of the busiest times for those who work with temporary piping systems. At Wolf Creek, we have the pipe and fittings your team needs to tackle any tough job that comes their way, such as sewer backups or flooded construction sites. Our selection of piping products includes galvanized steel pipe, HDPE (poly) piping and fittings, and pump strainers, as well as innovative tools like the Wolf Creek Warhammer multi-closing tool to promote efficiency and safety on job sites. You can rest assured that when harsh storms and flooding strike and you need to move fluid quickly, we’ve got you covered!

When it comes to suction and discharge work, such as sanitary sewer bypass projects, there’s little room for error. Municipalities depend on effective and efficient sanitary sewer systems, and malfunctions in the transport of sewage can harm the environment and the public.

Pumps are a mission-critical part of any sewer bypass project, whether the system requires maintenance, repair, or complete rehabilitation. Most bypass projects use multiple pumps working in tandem to pull from dry sanitary systems and discharge around the repair or rehabilitation site.

If you have upcoming sewer bypass projects, make sure you’re prepared on both sides of the pump with reliable piping, fittings, and support products from Wolf Creek. Our line of strainers help protect your pumps from debris build-up in sewer bypass operations, preventing wear on your pumps and delays in your project timeline. Whether you need a low-profile strainer, bar strainer, or our inline Hunnebucket, we have pump strainers that are fabricated with durability in mind. Check out our selection of 10 and 12-inch strainers in both A-type and B-type versions.
