Value Collection 233007PR Socket Pressure Plug 1/4-18

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 233007PR is a socket pressure plug designed to seal threaded pipe ports in hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid system applications. Machined to NPTF (National Pipe Taper Fuel) thread standards, the 1/4-18 thread size provides a pressure-tight mechanical seal without requiring a separate sealant on properly chased threads. Constructed from uncoated alloy steel, this plug delivers the strength needed for high-pressure service environments. Drive engagement is via a 7/32-inch hex key socket. Weighing approximately 0.05 pounds, it is a compact, precision-threaded component installed by plumbers, pipefitters, hydraulic technicians, and maintenance mechanics.

This socket pressure plug is suited for sealing unused or test ports on hydraulic manifolds, pneumatic assemblies, fluid power circuits, and industrial piping systems. The NPTF thread form creates an interference fit that seals on the threads themselves, making it appropriate for applications where port integrity under pressure is required. Typical install scenarios include capping off unused ports during system commissioning, blocking test points after pressure checks, and permanently sealing low-traffic access ports in production equipment.

Key Features

• 1/4-18 NPTF thread provides a pressure-tight interference fit seal
• Alloy steel construction for high-strength, high-pressure service
• 7/32-inch hex key drive socket for installation with standard Allen wrenches
• 7/8-inch taper per foot conforms to NPTF taper specification
• Uncoated finish suited for use where coating adhesion or compatibility is a concern
• Compact, lightweight at 0.05 pounds for easy handling in tight port locations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service plug for hydraulic, pneumatic, and fluid system components requiring a 1/4-18 NPTF threaded port seal.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter, hydraulic technician, or maintenance mechanic. Depressurize and de-energize the system fully before removing or installing any threaded port plug. Use a calibrated torque wrench with the appropriate 7/32-inch hex key bit and follow system manufacturer port torque guidelines. Inspect the receiving port threads for damage or contamination before installation to ensure a proper NPTF pressure seal.
