Pipe plugs from Fabory: For closing off pipe ends

Pipe plugs are specialised fasteners designed to close off the ends of pipes or fittings, preventing leaks and securing the contents within. They are typically used in fluid systems such as hydraulic or pneumatic applications and can be found in various mechanical and engineering environments where a tight seal is necessary. These plugs are essential for blocking the flow of liquids or gases in pipelines, making them crucial for maintenance and safety in systems like oil, gas, and water transport. They are also used during testing phases to check for leaks and ensure the system can hold pressure, with applications in industries ranging from automotive to chemical manufacturing.

When selecting pipe plugs, consider several factors, including material (steel, stainless steel, brass), thread type (metric or inch), and size to match the internal diameter of the pipe for a leak-proof seal. Standards compliance (like DIN or ISO) ensures compatibility with international specifications, and surface treatments such as zinc plating can enhance corrosion resistance and durability. These considerations are vital for ensuring the plug's performance in its specific application.
