Constructed from 304 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, and outdoor service environments. The male NPT threaded connection engages standard tapered pipe threads for a pressure-rated seal up to 150 psi. At 1-11\/16 inches in length and weighing 1.55 pounds, this plug is a dense, full-hex-body fitting suited for installations where a standard pipe wrench or socket is used for final make-up torque. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians routinely specify this fitting in water, air, and compatible fluid systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hex plug is used to close 2-1\/2 inch NPT female threaded ports on pipe fittings, manifolds, valves, tanks, and equipment housings. It is appropriate for residential and commercial plumbing, process piping, compressed air headers, and general industrial applications where a stainless steel closure is required to resist corrosion or meet material compatibility requirements. The ISO standard designation indicates dimensional conformance to internationally recognized pipe fitting standards, making it suitable for both domestic and export system builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e304 stainless steel body for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMale NPT threaded end connection engages standard 2-1\/2 inch female NPT ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e150 psi pressure rating for low- to medium-pressure piping applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFull hex head design accepts standard pipe wrenches and sockets for installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eISO-conforming dimensions for compatibility with standardized pipe fitting systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1-11\/16 inch body length suits tight spaces and close-coupled assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style threaded closure for any 2-1\/2 inch female NPT port in piping assemblies rated at or below 150 psi where 304 stainless steel material is acceptable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC or ASME B31 piping code requirements. Depressurize and isolate the line before removing or installing any threaded plug. Apply a suitable thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before make-up; do not overtighten, as stainless steel threads are susceptible to galling. Inspect the mating female port for damage or debris before final installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Threaded\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnd Connection\u003c\/strong\u003e: MNPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 150 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-11\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.55 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40175300\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: MERIT BRASS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: K417H-40\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MERIT BRASS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541187232050,"sku":"K417H-40","price":64.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a52762b4fdcba8699d84823f676e2976_55af25a7-a24c-469d-b108-27c83fb8d0db.jpg?v=1785869708","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/merit-brass-k417h-40-hex-pipe-plug-2-1-2-in-304-ss-mnpt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
