Oatey 271020 Pneumatic Pipe Plug 2 Inch

Product Description

The OATEY 271020 is a pneumatic pipe plug designed for pressure testing in plumbing and drain systems. It seals pipe openings so technicians can introduce air pressure to check for leaks before a system is put into service. The plug is sized for 2-inch nominal pipe and is installed and released using air pressure rather than mechanical tightening. Plumbers and pipefitters use this type of plug during rough-in inspections and final system commissioning to verify pressure integrity across drain, waste, and vent lines.

This plug is suited for use in residential and light commercial plumbing applications where 2-inch nominal pipe is present. It is commonly deployed during new construction and renovation work when drain, waste, and vent systems require pressure testing prior to inspection sign-off. The plug allows for quick installation and release, reducing test setup time during inspections.

Key Features

• Pneumatically operated for fast installation and removal without hand tools
• Sized for 2-inch nominal pipe openings
• Designed for air-pressure leak testing of drain, waste, and vent systems
• Allows repeatable testing cycles without damaging the pipe or fitting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for use in 2-inch nominal drain, waste, and vent piping systems requiring pneumatic pressure testing.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal should be performed by a licensed plumber familiar with pressure testing procedures and applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local amendments. Ensure the system is fully depressurized before inserting or removing the plug. Do not exceed the pressure rating of the pipe or fittings being tested. Follow all local inspection authority requirements for test pressure levels and hold times.
