WING NUT PLUMBER'S PLUG PRODUCT USES:
Designed and developed to test for leaks and for sealing off sections of pipelines generally made of cast iron, steel, vitrified clay, concrete, etc., these wing nut plugs come with a vent tube for venting excess back-pressure. One person can easily install these plugs. Turning the wing nut expands the rubber ring tightly against the inside of the pipe. Hand-tightening is usually adequate in smaller sizes, but a wrench can be used on larger sizes to provide a better seal.

A Critical Reminder: Conducting pressure testing poses significant hazards, demanding strict adherence to safety protocols. Ensure all connections, valves, flanges, and fittings are suitable for pressure testing. Verify the compatibility of line ID & Plug Range. Most importantly, never position yourself in front of a test plug or enclosure during testing. Discharge from a plug during testing could result in severe injury or fatality.
