Anvil International Inc 8700160057 Galvanized Pipe Plug

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700160057 is a 1.5-inch galvanized pipe plug designed to seal threaded pipe openings in plumbing and piping systems. The plug accepts a standard male threaded connection and is finished with a hot-dip or electro-galvanized coating to resist corrosion in wet and exposed environments. This fitting is a standard square-head or countersunk style plug used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors to cap off branch outlets, pressure-test lines, or permanently close unused ports in piping assemblies.

This plug is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, fire protection, and industrial piping applications where a reliable threaded closure is required. It is commonly installed in water supply lines, gas distribution piping, and hydronic heating systems. The 1.5-inch thread size fits standard NPT-threaded pipe and fittings of the same nominal diameter. Each unit is sold individually, with a package quantity of 25 units available per pack.
