Lay flat or poly hose hydraulic squeeze off tool

A hydraulic squeeze tool for managing fluid flow in pipe and hose systems, the tool comprising:

• a pair of compression arms designed to apply U- or V-shaped compression to pipes or hoses;
• high-pressure hydraulic cylinders connected to each of the compression arms;
• a stabilization bar connecting the hydraulic cylinders;
• hose connector ports for channeling hydraulic fluid to the hydraulic cylinders;
• and
• a safety flow divider check valve gauge attached to said compression arms;
• wherein the safety flow divider check valve gauge is a flow diverter box configured to distribute equal amounts of hydraulic fluid to each of the hydraulic cylinders so that the hydraulic cylinders extend and retract simultaneously, the safety flow divider check valve gauge further including check valves associated with each hydraulic cylinder to maintain hydraulic pressure in the event of a hydraulic hose failure and to keep the hydraulic cylinders charged and pressurized if hydraulic lines fail, thereby maintaining the compression arms in an operative position;
• and
• wherein the hydraulic squeeze tool is operable to restrict or cease fluid flow in pipe and hose systems up to 16 inches in diameter.
