Ham-let 3101062 Compression Tube Plug Brass

Product Description

The HAM-LET 3101062 is a brass compression tube plug designed to seal the open end of a compression tube fitting or tubing run. It uses a standard compression end connection to create a leak-tight termination without threading or soldering. Manufactured to ASTM B68 and ASTM B75 standards, this plug is suited for instrumentation, fluid control, and light process piping applications. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and instrumentation technicians are the typical installers. The brass construction provides good corrosion resistance in clean fluid and gas service within its rated temperature range of -20 degrees C to 37 degrees C.

This compression tube plug is used in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings wherever a compression fitting run must be capped or a port must be blocked. Common applications include instrument tubing terminations, pneumatic control lines, and hydraulic or fluid sampling systems. It is sold individually and ships as a single-piece unit, making it practical for service calls and small repair jobs where a single termination point needs to be closed off.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified instrumentation technician. Depressurize and isolate the tubing system completely before removing any existing fittings or installing this plug. Compression fittings require proper ferrule seating - follow the fitting manufacturer's assembly instructions for the correct number of turns past finger-tight. Do not over-torque the compression nut, as this can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
