This Anderson Metals 38109 cored plug fits into female threaded pipes 1-1/4" in diameter. The cored square head plug fitting inserts into a pipe or fitting to close and terminate its end and has a square head for an increased bearing surface when adjusting with a wrench. It has male threads for connecting to female threaded pipes or fittings. This fitting is made from red brass for high strength, better corrosion resistance than stainless steel, and greater ease in machining than yellow brass.
Pipe fittings are components used for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in many different industries. When purchasing pipe fittings, consider the application, as this will affect material type, shape, size and required durability. Fittings are available threaded or unthreaded, in many shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
