Rated at 125 lb, this plug is machined from brass with a rough finish, making it well suited for moderate-pressure plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial piping applications. The square head design allows for standard wrench engagement during installation and removal. Licensed plumbers and pipe fitters typically install this fitting as part of pressure testing, system capping, or permanent line termination work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plug fits 1-inch nominal MNPT pipe connections and is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial systems where brass fittings are specified. Common applications include capping unused branch lines, isolating sections of a system during service, and pressure testing. The 125 lb pressure rating suits standard low-to-moderate-pressure water and gas service lines where brass is a compatible material. Import construction meets general-purpose fitting requirements for non-critical service environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch nominal MNPT end style for direct threaded installation into female NPT ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e125 lb pressure rating suitable for standard plumbing and HVAC applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass construction provides corrosion resistance in water and compatible fluid service\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare head design allows full wrench engagement for secure make-up and removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRough finish for standard service use without additional machining required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard service fitting for 1-inch female NPT ports in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and piping systems rated for brass fittings at 125 lb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipe fitter in accordance with applicable IPC and IFGC guidelines.
