Value Collection -12148-8 Square Plug 2 in Class 3000 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -12148-8 is a 2-inch square pipe plug designed to seal NPT-threaded pipe ends in high-pressure piping systems. Manufactured from forged carbon steel with a black finish, it carries a Class 3000 pressure rating of 3000 psi, making it suitable for demanding liquid and gas applications. This fitting is a standard dead-end closure used by pipefitters, plumbers, and mechanical contractors when capping off branch connections, test ports, or unused pipe outlets in industrial and commercial piping assemblies.

This square plug is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a reliable, pressure-rated threaded closure is required. The 2-inch NPT connection fits standard female-threaded pipe fittings of the corresponding size. Typical applications include gas distribution piping, steam lines, hydraulic systems, and water distribution headers. The forged carbon steel construction withstands the mechanical stress of high-torque installation and sustained system pressure. This item is sold in a package quantity of 2.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2-inch NPT female-threaded pipe connections in Class 3000 forged carbon steel piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber in accordance with applicable mechanical codes such as the IFGC or ASME B31 piping standards. Depressurize and isolate the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the NPT threads before torquing the plug into place. Do not overtighten, as this can crack the female fitting or distort the plug drive head.
