Bk 158-004 Split Plate 3/4 Inch Ips Chrome Steel

Product Description

The BK 158-004 is a chrome-plated steel split plate designed for pipe trim and finish work in residential and light commercial plumbing installations. Split plates, also called escutcheons or cover plates, fit around exposed pipe penetrations through walls, floors, and ceilings to provide a clean, finished appearance. This model is sized for 3/4 inch IPS pipe with an outer dimension of 1.050 inches, making it a direct fit for standard 3/4 inch iron pipe size applications. Plumbers and finish contractors install these as part of routine rough-in completion and fixture trim-out work.

This split plate is suited for use wherever a 3/4 inch IPS pipe passes through a finished surface and a trim cover is required. Common applications include supply line penetrations, shutoff valve rough-in locations, and exposed pipe runs in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and mechanical spaces. The split design allows installation without removing the pipe or fitting, making it practical for retrofit and repair work as well as new construction.

Installation Notes

Split plates are typically installed by licensed plumbers or finish contractors during trim-out. Shut off water supply to the affected line before performing any work at the penetration point. The split design snaps or fastens around the pipe — ensure the finished wall or floor surface is clean and dry before seating the plate. Follow local plumbing codes for requirements on pipe penetration sealing in fire-rated assemblies.
