Anvil International Inc 8700159109 Black Pipe Plug

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700159109 is a black pipe plug in 1/8 inch size, designed to seal threaded pipe openings in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping systems. This plug threads directly into a female-threaded fitting or pipe end to close off unused ports or cap branch connections. It is a standard consumable used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors during rough-in, system testing, and final installation work. The black finish indicates standard black iron or malleable iron construction, common in gas piping and industrial applications.

This plug is suited for low-pressure gas piping, water supply rough-in, and general mechanical systems where a threaded pipe closure is required. Its 1/8 inch size fits tight-access ports, instrument taps, and branch connections on manifolds and fittings. Supplied in a package quantity of 100 units per case, making it practical for stocking and job-site use where multiple plugs are needed across a single project or service call.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable code requirements such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off gas or water supply and depressurize the system before installing or removing any threaded plug. Apply an approved thread sealant or tape rated for the intended service medium before threading the plug into the fitting. Do not overtighten; use a pipe wrench or fitting wrench appropriate to the plug size to achieve a proper seal without damaging the threads.
