Value Collection AP06.00 Aluminum Expansion Plug

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION AP06.00 is an aluminum expansion plug designed to seal pipe openings in plumbing, industrial piping, and maintenance applications. The plug expands from an unexpanded diameter of 5.866 inches to a fully expanded diameter of 6.496 inches, creating a secure, pressure-resistant seal. It is rated to a maximum working pressure of 9 psi. The 1/2-inch stem diameter provides a reliable grip point for installation and removal. Fabricated from aluminum, this plug offers corrosion resistance suitable for a range of fluid and drain service environments. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the typical installers of this type of fitting.

This expansion plug is used in residential and commercial piping systems where a temporary or permanent pipe end seal is required. Common applications include capping open pipe ends during pressure testing, isolating sections of a drain or vent line, and plugging pipe stubs in maintenance or retrofit scenarios. The 6.496-inch expanded diameter suits large-diameter pipe ends typically found in industrial or heavy commercial systems.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of pipe expansion plugs should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off all flow and relieve system pressure before inserting or removing the plug. Use an appropriate wrench on the stem to expand or retract the plug body — do not overtighten beyond rated expansion. Verify that system pressure does not exceed the 9 psi rating before returning the line to service.
