Anvil International Inc 8700159752 Galvanized Pipe Plug

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700159752 is a 1/4-inch galvanized pipe plug used to seal threaded pipe openings in plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical piping systems. The hot-dip or electro-galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet and humid environments. This plug is sold in a quantity of 100 units per package, making it well suited for contractors and service shops that need a reliable supply on hand. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install these plugs to cap unused branch openings, pressure-test pipe runs, or permanently seal dead-end fittings.

This 1/4-inch threaded plug is appropriate for residential and light commercial piping applications where a standard male NPT fitting is required to close off a female-threaded port. Common install scenarios include capping tee branches, sealing manifold ports, and closing off service inlets on boilers, water heaters, and hydronic distribution systems. The galvanized finish makes it suitable for use in damp mechanical rooms and exposed piping environments.

Key Features

• 1/4-inch nominal pipe thread (NPT) for sealing female-threaded pipe openings
• Galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance in wet and humid conditions
• Sold in a 100-unit package, reducing per-unit cost for high-volume service work
• Compact plug design allows installation in tight spaces with a standard pipe wrench or square-drive tool

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-inch NPT male threaded plug compatible with female-threaded fittings and pipe connections in typical plumbing and mechanical piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and IFGC code requirements for the system being serviced. Isolate and depressurize the pipe section and drain any residual fluid before installing or removing threaded plugs. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before tightening. Do not over-torque, as this can crack fittings or distort threads.
