Anderson Metals Corp 756109-06 Brass Square Head Pipe Plug

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS CORP 756109-06 is a 3/8-inch male pipe thread (MPT) brass square head pipe plug used to cap or close off threaded pipe openings in plumbing, HVAC, and related fluid-handling systems. Constructed from brass and rated as lead free compliant per Public Law 111-380, this plug meets the material standards required for potable water applications. The square head design allows installation and removal with a wrench or socket, providing a reliable, tamper-resistant seal. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers. Sold in bulk packaging of 10 units per package.

This plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing systems where a threaded port needs to be sealed during system modifications, repairs, or pressure testing. It is commonly installed in copper, CPVC, or galvanized pipe assemblies using standard NPT-threaded fittings. The lead free designation makes it appropriate for use in potable water supply lines where local codes mandate lead-free materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off the water supply and relieve system pressure before installing or removing any threaded pipe plug. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation. Tighten with a wrench to achieve a leak-free seal without over-torquing the brass fitting.
