Technical Specifications

Applications & Usage Context

• Used in high‑pressure fluid regulators where unused ports must be securely sealed to avoid leaks or contamination.
• Ideal for systems undergoing maintenance or rebuilds where restoration of original sealing is required.
• Supports optimal system performance by ensuring only intended flow paths are active and other openings remain closed.

Maintenance & Installation Guidelines

• Depressurize the system before installing or removing the plug to ensure safe handling.
• Clean the port seating area thoroughly to ensure a proper seal and prevent premature failure.
• Install the plug with correct torque—over‑tightening may damage threads or seating, under‑tightening may lead to leaks.
• Inspect during routine service intervals for signs of thread wear, corrosion or incomplete sealing, and replace if necessary.
