Description
Overview:
The 1.1/4 inch Male M/I Plug is a heavy‐duty threaded plug used to seal female threaded ports and pipe ends in construction and garden machinery. Made from malleable iron (M/I) for strength and toughness, it provides a dependable seal to prevent fluid or air leakage in service and during maintenance. The 1.1/4 in size suits standard UK pipework, commonly using BSP threads, making it a practical choice across plant, workshop, and site applications. Typical uses include blanking unused outlets on pumps, compressors, pressure washers, generators, concrete mixers, and larger irrigation or water transfer systems. Simple to fit with a spanner or wrench and suitable thread sealant, it offers a secure, durable solution for everyday repairs and installations.
Key Features:
