Sockets Pipe Flush

The document provides specifications for flush-seating pipe plugs, including nominal sizes, dimensions, thread details, material properties, and applications. Flush-seating pipe plugs have tapered threads along their entire length that provide a flush seal when installed in a standard tapped hole. They are preferred for high pressure applications where protrusion is undesirable.

Description

A flush type plug is one having a tapered (0.875" diametral per 12") thread extending its entire length and designed to provide a flush condition with a standard tapped hole (0.750" diametral per 12"). Both ends of the plug shall be flat and chamfered approximately 45. The chamfer shall extend slightly below the root of the thread, and the edge between flat and chamfer shall be slightly rounded. Six equally spaced identification grooves are located equidistant between corners of the hex socket and edge of the chamfer (Note: on the 1/16-27 plug, 3 identification grooves are permitted because of limited space).

Applications/ Advantages Material Heat Treatment Hardness Finish

A high pressure seal is achieved through the difference in taper, with dimensions precalculated to provide a higher sealing load near the large end of the plug and the threads near the top of the tapped hole. The flush type plug is preferred where high pressures are encountered and where protrusion is undesirable. High grade alloy steel Pipe plugs shall be heat-treated by quenching in oil from above the hardening temperature and tempered to achieve the hardness requirement listed below. Rockwell C36 - 43 Plugs are supplied with a standard black finish.
