The cored design allows for future tapping or line extensions without full plug removal. At 0.25 pounds, this fitting is a standard close-out or test-point component used in gas, oil, and industrial piping systems. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of plug when capping off threaded pipe ends or leaving a port accessible for future service. The square head drive provides positive wrench engagement for reliable installation and removal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plug is suited for residential and commercial piping applications where a threaded 1-inch NPT male connection needs to be capped or temporarily sealed. Common install scenarios include gas distribution manifolds, black iron pipe systems, and mechanical room piping headers. The cored center is particularly useful when the fitting may need to be converted to an active port at a later date, saving time on future modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCored center allows future tapping without full replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare head profile provides secure 4-point wrench engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack steel construction for use in gas and oil pipe systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch fitting size for standard NPT threaded connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.25 pounds for easy handling and installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit component for 1-inch threaded black iron pipe systems in residential and commercial mechanical applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded pipe fitting. Apply appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to male threads before torquing. Use a properly sized wrench on the square head drive — do not use pipe wrenches directly on the head, as this may deform the drive surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cored\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 318902442\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233985855794,"sku":"0318902442","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307627218.jpg?v=1780114068","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-318902442-1-in-square-head-plug","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
