Description
The B K Mueller Industries 521-805HN is a 1-inch black plain plug designed to cap and seal pipe ends in plumbing and gas distribution systems. This plug is sold in a package of 10 units, making it practical for service vans and job-site stock. The black iron construction suits threaded pipe assemblies where a durable, corrosion-resistant end cap is needed. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this type of plug during pressure testing, system commissioning, or whenever a run needs to be terminated without a permanent weld or solder connection.
This plain plug is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, gas piping, and mechanical systems where a threaded pipe end must be closed off. The 1-inch size fits standard NPT-threaded pipe and fittings. Typical applications include capping unused branch outlets, blanking off test ports, and closing temporary or future connection points during rough-in work.
