Value Collection 16792 Cpvc Hex Plug 1 in Mipt Sch 80 5 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 16792 is a Schedule 80 CPVC hex plug with male iron pipe thread (MIPT) ends, sized for 1-inch pipe. This fitting is used to close off the end of a threaded pipe run, capping an open line to stop flow or seal a port during system service. Schedule 80 CPVC construction provides greater wall thickness and higher pressure tolerance than Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding fluid-handling systems. Each pack contains five plugs. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting wherever a threaded termination point needs to be closed off cleanly and permanently or temporarily during pressure testing.

This hex plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, chemical distribution, and industrial fluid systems where CPVC is the specified material. The hex head allows installation and removal with a standard wrench, making it practical in tight manifold or header installations. It is appropriate for hot and cold water lines, as well as chemical and process piping where CPVC is rated for the media being conveyed.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off system pressure and drain the affected line before removing or installing any threaded plug. Apply an appropriate thread sealant rated for CPVC and the media being conveyed. Do not over-torque; CPVC threads can crack under excessive force. Verify local code compliance with IPC or applicable mechanical codes before installation.
