Oatey 269867 Mechanical Test Plug 0.75 Inch

Product Description

The OATEY 269867 is a 3/4-inch mechanical test plug designed for pressure and leak testing in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping systems. Known in the field as a Kwik-N-Sure style plug, it uses a mechanical expansion mechanism to seat firmly inside the pipe, creating a reliable seal during hydrostatic or air pressure tests. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters use this type of plug when testing new or repaired DWV runs before final inspection. The mechanical design allows quick installation and removal without specialty tooling, keeping job-site workflow efficient.

This test plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where 3/4-inch pipe testing is required. It is commonly used in new construction and retrofit work on ABS, PVC, and cast iron DWV systems. Inspectors and plumbers rely on mechanical test plugs during rough-in inspections to isolate pipe sections and verify system integrity before walls or slabs are closed in.

Key Features

• Mechanical expansion design seats firmly inside 3/4-inch pipe bore for a reliable pressure seal
• Quick installation and removal supports efficient rough-in inspection workflow
• Compatible with standard DWV pipe materials including PVC and ABS
• Compact form factor suited for tight access locations in walls and floor assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style mechanical test plug for use in 3/4-inch drain, waste, and vent piping systems in residential and light commercial plumbing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers in accordance with local plumbing codes and the International Plumbing Code (IPC). Shut off all water supply and relieve system pressure before inserting or removing the plug. Hand-tighten the mechanical expansion wing nut until the plug seats snugly against the pipe wall — do not overtighten. Remove the plug only after pressure has been fully relieved from the test section.
