Value Collection -12147-5 Black Hex Plug 1 in Npt Class 3000

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -12147-5 is a forged carbon steel hex plug with a black finish, sized at 1 inch NPT and rated to Class 3000. Hex plugs are used to close off threaded pipe openings in pressurized systems, blocking flow at an unused port without removing the fitting from service. This plug is suited for high-pressure liquid and gas applications, carrying a 3000 psi pressure rating. It ships in a package quantity of 5, making it practical for service vans or job-site stock. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers of this type of fitting.

This plug is appropriate for residential and commercial piping systems where a male NPT threaded port needs to be sealed. Typical applications include capping unused tees, crosses, and outlet ports on black iron gas piping, hydraulic lines, steam lines, and general industrial piping assemblies. The Class 3000 rating makes it suitable for high-pressure service conditions. The black finish is standard for carbon steel pipe fittings used in gas distribution and mechanical room applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable mechanical and plumbing codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded plug. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
