Introducing USA Industries' Snap ItĀ® Jr. Engineered Tube Plugs, designed for fast and easy installation. These ASME PCC-2* compliant plugs provide a secure seal without the need for welding, ensuring protection against tube sheet damage. Rated for up to 1,000 PSID, they offer dependable performance for heat exchangers.
As the manufacturer, we have the capability to produce and ship your tube plugs within days, while competitive distributors may take weeks. If they are not already in stock, we'll make and ship them to you quickly.
Snap It Jr. Tube Plugs Increase Safety:
Snap It Jr. tube plugs are verified to withstand pressures exceeding 18,000 PSID, preventing blowouts that can be extremely dangerous. The absence of welding eliminates the risk of sparks igniting hazardous chemicals or fumes.
Snap It Jr. Tube Plugs Save Time & Labor Costs:
Installation is completed in minutes, allowing for "through-the-tube plugging" without removing the rear head cover. Skip welding for high-pressure applications, as Snap It tube plugs can be installed swiftly with a hydraulic ram, creating a strong seal up to 1,000 PSID. The time saved on installation directly translates to reduced maintenance labor costs and minimized unit downtime.
Snap It Jr. Tube Plugs are Extremely Cost-Effective:
While Snap It engineered tube plugs may have a higher initial cost, the savings in reduced labor and shorter unit downtime quickly offset this. The unique installation process prevents damage to tube sheets and ligaments, avoiding costly maintenance downtime. When used in tubular reactors, it significantly reduces reloading times due to its design and compatibility with catalyst loading systems.
The Snap It Jr. Engineered Tube Plug is versatile, fits multiple tube sizes, and is available in various materials. The tooling for installation and removal is compatible with any system, and USA Industries offers affordable equipment rental or purchase. We proudly guarantee a leak-free helium seal to 1 x 10-9 c/sec, providing assurance that this plug will not fail.

*ASME PCC-2 stands for the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Post Construction Committee 2. It is a standard developed to provide guidelines and procedures for the repair of pressure equipment, including vessels, piping, and related components, after they have been constructed and put into service. ASME PCC-2 covers various aspects of repair, including design, fabrication, inspection, and testing, and it offers recommendations for both temporary and permanent repairs depending on the situation. The standard is widely used in industries where pressure equipment is prevalent, such as petrochemical, oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing.
Snap It Plugs must be installed exclusively within the rolled section of the tubesheet. If the tubes are not rolled into the tubesheet, contact USA Industries at 1-888-299-2155 for guidance before proceeding further. Before installation, eliminate any scale and pitting using USA Industriesā Snap It Brushes. Additionally, ensure that any weld droop is removed prior to plug installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Snap It Jr. tube plugs are rated @ 1,000 lbs of pressure, but with our independent testing, we've seen blowout pressures exceeding 18,000 PSID.
We can make your Snap Its in any exotic or standard metal, and regularly produce tube plugs in more than 20 different materials. Most commonly requested metals include: 70/30 CuNi, 90/10 CuNi, Brass, Carbon Steel, Chrome/Moly, Hastelloy, Inconel, Monel, Nickel 200, Stainless Steel (316 and 304), Titanium, Zirconium and more.
We sell our Snap It plugs in sleeves of 10. There is no maximum. We have the capabilities to produce 5,000 plugs daily, and have more than 500,000 tube plugs of all varieties in stock at all times. Even custom orders, can typically be manufactured and shipped extremely quickly!
Snap It Jr. tube plugs don't require welding, completely removing the risk of a spark igniting dangerous fumes or chemicals.
With Snap It, you can guarantee a consistent and controlled installation, making the entire process safer and more predictable. With proper installation, Snap It Jr. tube plugs have an average safety factor exceeding 18.
We strongly suggest never standing in front of an installed tube plug of any type.
Snap It Jr. tube plugs are rated @ 1,000 PSID and have three points of contact. They also cover a wider range of Tube I.D.s.
Our Snap It Sr. tube plugs are rated @ 7,000 PSID and have five points of contact, but they cover a more limited range of I.D.s.
The Jr. Plug is suitable for most applications. The Sr. Plugs are used most commonly in high-pressure applications.
Both Snap It Sr. and Snap It Jr. tube plugs require some tools for installation and removal. We strongly suggest using tube brushes to clean and prep your tubes, then installation is a breeze. Our hydraulic ram and pull rod assemblies provide consistent, controlled intallation, eliminating the hazards of tapered and welded plugs, as well as tube and tube sheet damage.
Once you've installed a few Snap Its, you'll find it takes less than 60 seconds to prep and install these tube plugs. Now you can skip welding, and save up to 80% in labor costs with a quick and consistent installation process!
