Spears 449-060 Pvc Sch 40 Plug Spigot 6 Inch

Product Description

The SPEARS 449-060 is a 6-inch PVC Schedule 40 spigot plug designed to cap off open pipe ends in pressure and drain piping systems. This solid plug seats into a socket-end fitting, creating a secure, leak-resistant termination point. It is manufactured from PVC, making it resistant to corrosion and compatible with a wide range of chemical environments. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting in residential, commercial, and light industrial applications wherever a cleanout, branch, or test port needs to be closed off temporarily or permanently.

This plug is suited for use in Schedule 40 PVC piping systems operating within standard pressure and temperature ratings for PVC. Common install scenarios include capping unused tee or cross branches, closing off drain cleanout ports, and pressure-testing pipe runs prior to commissioning. The spigot end slides into a standard Schedule 40 socket, so no additional adapter is required at a mating Schedule 40 fitting.

Key Features

• PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and chemical compatibility
• Schedule 40 wall dimensions meet standard pressure ratings for PVC piping systems

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. Clean and deburr the mating socket before applying PVC primer and solvent cement per the cement manufacturer instructions. De-energize or shut off any pressurized flow to the system before installing or removing plugs. Do not use petroleum-based lubricants or thread sealants on solvent-weld PVC fittings.
