Parker 2BLP2-316 Compression Tube Plug Ss 10900 Psi

Product Description

The PARKER 2BLP2-316 is a stainless steel compression tube plug designed to seal tubing lines in high-pressure fluid and gas systems. It accepts a 5/16-20 inch thread connection using NPT thread standard and is rated for a maximum working pressure of 10900 psi. The plug handles an extreme temperature range, from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F, making it suitable for cryogenic, high-temperature, and corrosive service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial technicians install this fitting to cap off compression tubing runs during system maintenance, modification, or permanent line termination.

This compression tube plug is used in residential and commercial plumbing, hydraulic, pneumatic, instrumentation, and process piping systems where a leak-free seal on an open tube end is required. Its stainless steel construction suits applications involving corrosive media, elevated temperatures, or sanitary process requirements. The plug is commonly installed in HVAC refrigeration lines, chemical processing equipment, and instrumentation tubing assemblies where reliable pressure retention is critical.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance and high-temperature durability
• Maximum working pressure of 10900 psi for demanding high-pressure service
• Wide temperature range from -425 degrees F to 1200 degrees F covers cryogenic and high-heat applications
• 5/16-20 NPT compression end connection for secure, leak-free tube sealing
• Compact overall length of 0.47 inches for tight-space installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style compression tube plug for use with 5/16-20 NPT compression fittings in high-pressure tubing systems across industrial, HVAC, and process piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified technician familiar with compression fitting assembly. Depressurize and isolate the tubing line completely before removing or installing any compression fitting. Follow applicable codes such as ASME B31.1 or B31.3 for pressure piping systems. Do not overtighten compression fittings, as excess force can deform the ferrule and compromise the seal.
