Value Collection VS1.50 Nylon Pipe Test Plug 1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION VS1.50 is a nylon hex plug designed for pressure testing pipe systems. It inserts into the pipe opening in its unexpanded state and expands to create a secure, leak-resistant seal during testing procedures. With a nominal size of 1.5 inches, an unexpanded diameter of 1.420 inches, and an expanded diameter of 1.930 inches, this plug provides a reliable fit across a range of pipe bore tolerances. It is installed by plumbers and pipefitters performing hydrostatic or pneumatic pressure tests on drain, waste, and vent lines or similar low-pressure pipe systems.

This plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where temporary pipe sealing is required during rough-in inspection or system commissioning. The nylon construction makes it appropriate for use in water, drain, and non-aggressive fluid systems where a lightweight, corrosion-resistant test plug is needed. It is packaged and sold individually, making it practical for targeted repairs or single-opening test scenarios.

Key Features

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local equivalents. Before installing, ensure the pipe section is isolated and depressurized. Use an appropriately sized wrench on the hex fitting to expand the plug body against the pipe bore. Remove the plug and inspect the seal area after testing is complete before returning the system to service.
