Socket pipe plugs, also known as pipe plugs or pipe caps, are threaded fasteners designed to seal the ends of pipes, fittings or other threaded openings. They are used to close off or block the flow of liquids, gases or other substances within a piping system. Socket pipe plugs have a cylindrical body with a threaded end.
Socket pipe plugs are commonly used in plumbing, industrial, automotive, and mechanical applications. When using socket pipe plugs, it's important to choose the appropriate size and material for the specific application and to ensure proper tightening to achieve a reliable and secure seal. Proper torque application helps prevent leaks and ensures the plug remains securely in place.
