The need for preliminary abrasive cleaning of gas pipelines to increase the efficiency of in-pipe diagnostics by magnetic longitudinal magnetization flaw detectors is evaluated. The method of abrasive cleaning of pipes and a tool that implements the method is presented. Results from pilot tests under conditions typical of Saratovorgdiagnostika company are presented.
