B K/mueller Inds(import) 511-802HN Galvanized Pipe Plug 3/8

Product Description

The B K/MUELLER INDS(IMPORT) 511-802HN is a 3/8-inch galvanized pipe plug with a plain forged construction. It is used to seal and cap threaded pipe openings in plumbing, gas, and mechanical piping systems. The plug is sold in a package of 10 units, making it well-suited for contractor stock or multi-point installations. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for use in typical indoor and moderate-exposure applications. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers of this fitting type.

This plug is designed for use in residential and light commercial piping systems where a threaded pipe end requires a secure, leak-free cap. Common applications include capping unused branch outlets, blanking off test ports, and sealing threaded openings during system modifications or repairs. The plain forged body is sized at 3/8 inch to match standard NPT threaded pipe connections of that size.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded pipe systems. Shut off supply pressure and depressurize the line before installing or removing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the plug threads before installation, following local plumbing code requirements such as the IPC. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the fitting or the mating threads.
