Screw-In Plugs for Threaded Holes
Black-Oxide
Steel
Aluminum
Plastic
Install screw-in plugs into threaded holes with a screwdriver. They have a slotted drive that resists chip buildup.
Black-Oxide Steel—Black-oxide steel plugs are the most durable, so they’re good for repeated use in demanding applications. The black oxide coating provides mild corrosion resistance.
Aluminum—Aluminum plugs are more corrosion resistant than steel plugs—they’re also gentler on steel threads.
Plastic—Plastic plugs are lightweight and economical.
