Value Collection 6SQ2 Square Head Pipe Plug 2 in 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6SQ2 is a 2-inch square head pipe plug designed to seal pipe ends and unused port openings in fluid and gas piping systems. Constructed from 316 stainless steel, this plug offers strong resistance to corrosion and chemical exposure, making it well suited for demanding industrial and process environments. The male NPT (MNPT) threaded connection provides a reliable, leak-resistant seal when properly torqued into a female-threaded fitting or pipe end. With a 150 psi pressure rating, this plug handles standard low-pressure service applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting during system assembly, pressure testing, and port capping.

This square head pipe plug is commonly used in plumbing, process piping, and mechanical systems where stainless steel is required for corrosion resistance or sanitary reasons. Typical applications include capping unused branch outlets, sealing test ports, and closing off pipe ends during system commissioning or maintenance. The square drive head allows installation with a standard pipe wrench or adjustable wrench, making it practical for tight spaces where a hex socket is unavailable. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both new construction and retrofit service work.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, and outdoor environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for standard 2-inch female NPT threaded pipe fittings and port openings in residential, commercial, and industrial piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local jurisdiction requirements. Depressurize and drain the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded plugs. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before installation to ensure a leak-free connection. Do not overtighten, as excessive force can damage the threads or the mating fitting.
