Asc Engineered Solutions 8700159950 Galvanized Plug 1 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 8700159950 is a 1-inch malleable iron galvanized plug designed to close off threaded pipe openings in piping systems. Built with a hollow core regular plug design, it seals unused female-threaded ports on fittings, tees, and manifolds. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in wet or exposed installations. This plug meets Federal Specification WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14 for dimensions, and ANSI B-2.1 for pipe threads. It is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors working on low-pressure pipe assemblies across residential and light commercial applications.

This plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical piping systems where unused threaded outlets must be sealed. It is appropriate for use in gas, water, and general-purpose piping installations that call for malleable iron fittings. The hollow core design keeps weight low while maintaining the structural integrity required for threaded pipe connections. Plumbers and pipefitters commonly use this plug to cap branch openings during system installation, testing, or future-use preparation.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction for strength and machinability in threaded applications
• Galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or exposed environments
• Hollow core regular plug design reduces weight while maintaining thread engagement
• Meets Federal Spec WW-P-471-B, ANSI B-16.14 (Dimensions), and ANSI B-2.1 (Pipe Threads)
• 1-inch NPT male thread fits standard female-threaded pipe fittings
• Sold individually — unit of measure is each

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for standard 1-inch female NPT threaded pipe connections in malleable iron piping systems conforming to ANSI B-16.14.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any threaded plug. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation. Tighten to hand-tight plus the appropriate number of turns as required by the applicable IPC or IFGC code for the pipe material and service.
