Bk 158-005 Split Plate 1 Inch Ips Chrome Steel

Product Description

The BK 158-005 is a chrome-plated steel split plate designed for 1-inch IPS pipe with an outer diameter of 1.315 inches. Split plates, also called escutcheons or cover flanges, are used to finish pipe penetrations through walls, floors, and ceilings, covering rough openings and providing a clean, professional appearance at the pipe exit point. This two-piece split design allows installation around existing pipe runs without disconnecting the line. It is a common trim component installed by plumbers and pipefitters during rough-in finish work.

This split plate is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing trim applications where 1-inch IPS pipe passes through finished surfaces such as drywall, tile backer, or wood. Typical uses include water supply lines, drain risers, and hydronic piping penetrations. The chrome finish coordinates with standard plumbing fixture trim in bathroom and kitchen environments.

Secure per manufacturer instructions and confirm the plate lies flush against the finished surface for a proper trim appearance.
