Caplugs 14235 Mechanical Pipe Plug 2.25 Inch

Product Description

The CAPLUGS 14235 is a mechanical pipe plug designed to seal open-ended pipes during storage, transport, or service work. It provides a secure, interference-fit closure that keeps contaminants, debris, and moisture out of pipe openings. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors reach for this type of plug when capping off lines during system testing, rough-in staging, or equipment changeouts. The 14235 is sized for 2.25-inch pipe ends and ships in a package quantity of 25 units, making it practical for job-site stocking.

This plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and mechanical applications where open pipe ends need to be protected or temporarily sealed. Typical uses include capping supply and drain stubs during construction phases, sealing pipe ends during pressure testing prep, and protecting threaded or plain pipe terminations from jobsite contamination. The 25-count package format supports multi-outlet or multi-line installations where several openings need to be plugged in a single service visit.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by plumbers or pipefitters as part of rough-in, staging, or system protection workflows. Ensure the pipe end is clean and free of burrs before seating the plug to achieve a proper interference fit. Depressurize and isolate any active lines before inserting or removing plugs on live systems. These plugs are intended for temporary sealing and protection and should be removed before final system commissioning unless rated for permanent use.
