Tigre Usa Inc 36-2021 Male Pipe Thread Plug 3 Inches

Product Description

The TIGRE USA INC 36-2021 is a 3-inch male pipe thread (MPT) plug used to seal open pipe ends in plumbing and piping systems. Threaded plugs like this one are installed into female-threaded fittings or pipe ends to cap off a line, isolate a branch, or close out unused ports during testing and service. The external threads engage the female fitting directly, creating a secure mechanical seal. This type of fitting is a standard item in commercial and residential plumbing work, as well as in irrigation, industrial piping, and HVAC condensate systems.

The 36-2021 is suited for applications requiring a 3-inch MPT closure on female-threaded pipe fittings. Common install scenarios include capping off branch lines during system modifications, blanking unused tee outlets, and pressure-testing pipe runs. The 3-inch size places this plug in the range typically found in commercial plumbing, industrial service lines, and larger-diameter irrigation mains. It is sold in a package quantity of 50 units, making it practical for contractors stocking multiple sizes on a job or in a truck inventory.

Installation Notes

Installation of threaded pipe plugs is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the affected line before installing or removing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation to ensure a leak-free seal. Tighten to the fitting manufacturer's recommended engagement, and pressure-test the system after service in accordance with local plumbing codes and the IPC.
