Established in 1980, IFT has been involved in critical pipeline solutions around the globe. At the same time IFT has evolved a sales branch for the industry, 2LBin.com/HottapCutters.com, through which all the equipment necessary for hottapping can be found

Keying on large diameter sewage bypasses for the city of Las Vegas, to complicated water system conversions for San Salvador, IFT has performed many thousands of hot taps, live valve installations, pipe freezes, line stops, valve inserting operations and we apply all that experience in building our Tapping equipment.

Developing simple, dependable machinery for critical projects and pushing it beyond what is expected is our philosophy. Our equipment and products have been forced to perform in unpredictable situations and the equipment and products that work are offered for sale, the rest is torched or copied by the others.

IFT begin in the service world 30+ years ago. It is a challenging, active, and intense industry that is unforgiving of mistakes and malfunctions. So choose your tools wisely like we do and use what was developed by the best here on this site and our other sites.
