Value Collection PC44GW-55 Push-to-connect Plug 5/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PC44GW-55 is a push-to-connect plug fitting designed to seal off a 5/16-inch ID tube end quickly and without tools. Constructed from polyoxymethylene (POM), a rigid engineering-grade thermoplastic, this plug offers solid chemical resistance and dimensional stability across a wide range of fluid-handling applications. It is rated to 150 psi, making it suitable for low-to-medium pressure pneumatic and liquid lines. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance techs use fittings like this when capping unused tube ports or temporarily isolating a line during service work.

This plug fitting is applicable in residential and light commercial fluid distribution systems where push-to-connect tube termination is required. Typical install scenarios include capping off unused ports on manifolds, pneumatic control systems, water treatment equipment, and tubing runs awaiting future connections. Its tool-free engagement makes it well-suited for quick service calls and panel work where speed and cleanliness matter.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style push-to-connect plug for 5/16-inch ID tubing used in pneumatic, water, and fluid distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Depressurize and isolate the line completely before inserting or removing this plug fitting. Ensure the tube end is cut cleanly and squarely, and that it is free of burrs or debris before engagement. This fitting is typically installed by plumbers, HVAC technicians, or industrial maintenance personnel following applicable codes such as the IPC or relevant pneumatic system standards. Do not exceed the 150 psi pressure rating of this fitting in service.
