Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700159158 is a 1/4 inch black pipe plug used to seal the end of a threaded pipe or fitting. It is installed in plumbing, HVAC, gas piping, and industrial piping systems where an open female-threaded port requires a permanent or semi-permanent closure. The plug ships in a package quantity of 100 units, making it a practical stock item for plumbing and mechanical contractors who routinely need pipe thread closures on the job.

This plug is suited for residential and commercial installations where a 1/4 inch female NPT port must be capped. Common applications include capping unused ports on manifolds, boilers, pumps, gas valves, and distribution headers. The black finish is typical of malleable iron or black steel fittings used in gas and hydronic piping systems.
