Engineered for residential and commercial plumbing systems, our Premium Brass PEX Plugs provide a highly dependable, permanent or temporary termination point for open PEX tubing runs. Manufactured to strict ASTM F1807 standards from high-grade lead-free brass, these crimp-style end plugs offer maximum mechanical strength, high corrosion resistance, and safe operation for domestic drinking water networks.
Featuring a precision-machined barbed end on one side and a solid, sealed face on the other, these plugs allow you to quickly cap off water lines during system additions, multi-stage renovations, or pressure testing. They are designed to work seamlessly with either copper crimp rings or stainless steel pinch clamps, ensuring a permanent connection that easily handles constant pressure changes.
Key Features and Benefits
ASTM F1807 Standard Compliance: Precision-engineered to match universal mechanical dimensions for crimp-style PEX systems, ensuring perfect compatibility with all major brands of PEX-A, PEX-B, and PEX-C tubing.
Lead-Free Brass Construction: Forged from premium lead-free brass, meeting the strict requirements of NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 standards for safe, clean drinking water systems.
Leak-Proof Line Termination: Provides a reliable, air-tight and water-tight seal at the end of a plumbing run, allowing you to isolate specific zones or safely leave stub-out lines behind finished drywall.
Dual Connection System Compatibility: Highly versatile fitting design that can be secured using standard copper crimp rings with a traditional crimping tool, or stainless steel cinch clamps with a universal pincer tool.
Industrial-Grade Durability: Thick, resilient wall construction protects against dezincification, stress-corrosion cracking, and physical damage behind walls or buried under concrete slabs.
