Two Piece Tube Plugs - Condensers - Heat Exchangers

How to use the tube plug:

  • For sealing off leaky condenser and heat exchanger tubes without damaging tube sheets.
  • Place correct size ring in tube. (Order by Tube O.D. and gage)
  • Tapered plug is driven into ring, which is tapered on the inside and is parallel to tube on the outside. This gives even expansion to the ring and a long contact to the seal. Available in a variety of metals: stainless steel 316 or 304, carbon steel and others.
