For essential connections in many industries, Threaded/Socket Weld Hex Head Plugs from Fortis Forge are renowned for their high strength, precision threading, and exceptional resistance to corrosion and pressure. These forged fittings ensure excellent performance and long-term reliability by adhering to ASTM A105, ASME B16.11, and relevant DIN standards. Manufactured using mild steel or carbon steel, our hex head plugs are designed to seal off pipe ends securely in high-stress environments. Their robust construction and dimensional accuracy make them ideal for both temporary and permanent sealing applications in oil & gas, chemical processing, marine, and power generation systems.
A Threaded or Socket Weld Hex Head Plug is a forged pipe fitting used to close the end of a pipe or fitting. It features a hexagonal-shaped head, allowing easy installation and removal using standard tools, making it ideal for maintenance access points or permanent sealing.
Features internal or external threads for secure, leak-proof sealing without welding. This design is ideal for systems requiring periodic inspection, cleaning, or temporary closure.
Designed with a socket end to allow the pipe to be inserted and fillet welded, offering a permanent and high-strength closure for high-pressure applications.
These plugs are essential for isolating piping sections, providing access points, or sealing unused outlets in various process systems.
