For essential sealing and isolation in many industrial systems, Bull Plugs from Fortis Forge are valued for their high strength, leak-proof performance, and durability under pressure. These forged components are primarily used to close the ends of pipe headers, tees, or outlets in oil & gas, chemical, and power generation industries. Fortis Forge manufactures Bull Plugs in accordance with ASTM A105, ASME B16.11, and relevant DIN standards, ensuring strict compliance and reliability.
Manufactured from carbon steel or mild steel, our Bull Plugs are designed to withstand high-stress operating conditions, offering excellent resistance to corrosion, erosion, and mechanical impact. The precision forging and threading processes ensure tight sealing performance, making them ideal for temporary or permanent closures in both indoor and outdoor piping systems.
Whether your application demands standard configurations or customized solutions, Fortis Forge delivers high-quality Bull Plugs that maintain system integrity and safety, even in the most demanding environments.
A Threaded/Socket Weld Bull Plug is a solid forged pipe fitting used to seal the end of a piping system. It is shaped like a plug with a rounded or bullnose end and is available with either male threads or a socket weld connection, allowing for secure closure in pressure piping systems.
Threaded Bull Plug: Features male threads for easy installation into female-threaded openings. Ideal for temporary or removable closures in low- to moderate-pressure applications.
Socket Weld Bull Plug: Designed with a socket end for welding to pipe sections. This ensures a permanent, leak-proof seal suitable for high-pressure systems where disassembly is not required.
Bull plugs play a critical role in terminating flow paths or isolating piping sections during maintenance, testing, or expansion of piping networks.
At Fortis Forge, our Bull Plugs are manufactured using:
Carbon Steel (ASTM A105)
→ Known for excellent strength and toughness under pressure and temperature. Suitable for power plants, oil & gas, and refinery systems.
Mild Steel (IS 2062)
→ Offers good machinability, ductility, and cost-efficiency for general industrial applications.
Each bull plug is engineered to ensure:
Precision threading (ANSI/ASME B1.20.1)
Uniform wall thickness and full body strength
Corrosion resistance and long service life
Pressure integrity under mechanical stress
Our fittings undergo rigorous processes to meet global standards:
Hot forging and precision CNC machining
Heat treatment to enhance mechanical properties
Non-destructive testing (NDT) for defect-free integrity
Hydrostatic pressure testing for leak-proof performance
