Tigre Usa Inc 1449-015 Plastic Insert Plug 1-1/2 Inches

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 1449-015 is a 1-1/2 inch plastic insert plug designed for use with polyethylene (PE) pipe in cold water distribution systems. It connects to PE pipe using stainless steel clamps, forming a secure, leak-resistant termination point at the end of a poly line. This fitting is listed under ASTM D-2609 and carries NSF 14 and NSF 16 certifications for potable water service, making it appropriate for drinking water applications. Plumbers and irrigation contractors install this type of fitting wherever a PE pipe run needs to be capped or temporarily terminated. The plug is sold in a package quantity of 25 units.

This insert plug is intended for cold water service only in non-dwelling applications such as agricultural irrigation lines, rural water distribution, and similar polyethylene piping systems. It is not approved for use with compressed air, gases, or inside residential dwelling units. Installation requires stainless steel clamps to secure the fitting to the PE pipe. Any field modification to the fitting voids the manufacturer warranty.
