Machined from alloy steel with an NPTF thread profile, this plug creates a pressure-tight mechanical seal by engaging tapered threads without relying on a sealant alone. The 1\/4-18 NPTF thread size is one of the most common port sizes encountered in industrial and mechanical systems. Drive is via a 3\/4-inch taper per foot thread form standard and a 1\/4-inch hex key socket, making installation straightforward with standard Allen wrenches. Plumbers, pipefitters, hydraulic technicians, and maintenance mechanics regularly specify this fitting type for capping unused ports during system assembly or service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plug is suited for use in hydraulic manifolds, pneumatic valve bodies, lubrication systems, and general-purpose fluid circuits where a leak-free port closure is required. The 1\/4-18 NPTF thread engages standard NPT-ported components commonly found in industrial machinery, compressors, and fluid power equipment. The uncoated alloy steel construction makes it appropriate for dry or oil-wetted environments where corrosion is not a primary concern. It is sold individually and is typically ordered in quantity for maintenance kits, assembly lines, or shop stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-18 NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight taper-thread seal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction for strength in high-pressure port applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch taper per foot thread form per NPTF standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch hex key drive for installation with a standard Allen wrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated finish suitable for oil-wetted or dry service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact, lightweight design at approximately 0.019 pounds per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or stock fitting for any hydraulic, pneumatic, or fluid system component with a 1\/4-18 NPTF threaded port.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or maintenance mechanic. Always depressurize and bleed down the system fully before removing or installing port plugs. Use a calibrated hex key or Allen wrench sized to the 1\/4-inch drive socket and follow applicable system torque guidance from the equipment OEM. NPTF threads are designed for dry-seal assembly, but thread sealant tape may be used per the system manufacturer's instructions if required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPTF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaper\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inches per foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches hex key\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.019 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Value Collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 231007PR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51717472289074,"sku":"231007PR","price":4521.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/966d0cbd308cc067942bf03cf63c46cc.jpg?v=1788541044","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-231007pr-socket-pressure-plug-1-4-18","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
