What This Fitting Does

A male plug is used to seal or close off a female BSP-threaded port. It provides a safe and reliable way to terminate unused outlets, test points, spare connections or maintenance access ports.

Why Choose a Male Plug?

• Simple and secure closure for unused threaded openings.
• Prevents contamination, leaks and fluid ingress in sanitary systems.
• One-piece stainless construction offers high mechanical strength.
• Easy removal and reinstallation during servicing or system changes.

Material Advantages - 316 Stainless Steel

• Outstanding corrosion resistance in chemical washdown, CIP cycles and saltwater.
• Safe for breweries, wineries, dairies, distilleries and food-processing environments.
• Ideal for marine and coastal applications where durability is essential.
• Withstands pressure, heat and frequent cleaning cycles without degradation.

Common Applications

• Sealing spare or unused ports on valves, tanks and pumps
• Washdown and hot/cold water systems
• Testing, isolation and maintenance points
• Marine and corrosive fluid-handling installations

Each male plug is precision-machined from solid 316 stainless steel, ensuring hygienic and reliable sealing for sanitary and corrosive applications.

To ensure maximum service life and safe performance of your equipment, please follow these general care guidelines:

• Clean after use – Rinse or CIP components to remove product, residue or cleaning chemicals.
• Avoid kinks, crushing or sharp bends – Protect hoses and assemblies from mechanical damage.
• Store correctly – Hang hoses or reels where possible; keep fittings and clamps dry and off the floor.
• Inspect regularly – Check for wear, abrasion, loose clamps, damaged gaskets or compromised seals.
• Use compatible cleaning chemicals – Follow manufacturer guidelines for caustic, acid or sanitiser exposure.
• Protect from high heat / UV – Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, heaters or hot surfaces unless rated for it.
• Depressurise before disconnecting – Always release system pressure before removing hoses or fittings.
• Replace worn components promptly – Gaskets, clamps, seals and hose ends should be renewed as needed.
  

Proper routine care extends lifespan, improves hygiene and ensures safe, reliable operation across all brewery, winery, distillery and food-processing environments.
