Brass female plug

Secure and shut off your hydraulic circuits with professional reliability, thanks to this brass female plug with hexagonal head. Indispensable for general plumbing, this threaded fitting allows you to close a male outlet cleanly, guaranteeing a long-lasting hermetic seal on your manifolds, tanks or water distribution networks.

Excellent workmanship in CW617N brass

The durability of your installations depends on the quality of its components. This plug has been rigorously designed to meet the requirements of construction and industry professionals. Unlike standard products, it is the result of a high-precision forging and machining process (or décolletage), which ensures perfectly calibrated tapped threads and a porosity-free structure.

The choice of brass offers exceptional natural resistance to corrosion and limescale deposits. Its hexagonal geometry has been specifically designed to provide a firm grip with a wrench or wrench, enabling optimum torque to be applied without the risk of marking the material or slipping during the locking phase.

• Mechanical resistance: withstands repeated shocks and handling without deformation.
• Certified quality: Material complies with health and safety standards.
• Meticulous finish: Clean tapping for smooth, effortless screw start-up.

ISO 228-1 standardization and PN 16 Bar performance

The major advantage of this female cap lies in its full compliance with international standards. The connection is Gas "G" according to ISO 228-1 (BSPP), ensuring universal compatibility with all your nipples, valves and male threaded outlets on the market. Whether your installation is domestic or agricultural, this plug will fit with millimetric precision.

In terms of performance, this fitting is certified for a nominal pressure of PN 16 Bar. This high resistance capacity means it can be used on constant-pressure circuits, hot water tanks or heating systems. Its thermal versatility is another plus: it can withstand a wide range of temperatures, depending on the seal you choose, whether you use PTFE tape, fiber seal or anaerobic glue.

Easy installation and expert advice

Installation is quick andeasy. For perfect sealing, simply screw the plug onto the corresponding male thread. If your male part has a flat bearing surface, using a flat gasket inside the female plug is the safest way to guarantee an immediate seal. Otherwise, applying PTFE tape or oakum to the male thread remains the benchmark solution for permanently sealing a pipe.

Case studies: maintenance and safety

In a concrete renovation case, this plug is the essential tool for closing off a waiting pipe after the removal of a sanitary appliance (washbasin, radiator). At the end of the watering season, for example, it can be used to close off drain outlets to prevent insects or impurities from lodging there over the winter. Its sturdiness also makes it an ideal protective plug for 1000-liter tank valves after garden fittings have been removed.
