Drum Plugs




For installation and removal of these plugs, use drum-plug wrenches.
Style D have a M64 thread size, which is also known as Buttress threads.
Drum-plug caps (sold separately) fit over drum plugs to provide dust protection as well as evidence of tampering. They have a breakaway seal and are for one-time use.

UV-Resistant Polypropylene Pipe Fittings for Chemicals
Made of polypropylene, these fittings won’t deteriorate when exposed to the damaging effects of ultraviolet light and are suitable to use outdoors. They have the chemical resistance to withstand a wide variety of acids, solvents, and other harsh substances. Apply a non-hardening, plastic-compatible sealant to the male threads to prevent leaks. Tape or sealants with PTFE are not recommended for plastic-to-plastic threaded connections. When making a threaded connection be careful not to overtighten the threads. To prevent cracks and leaks, finger tighten the fitting, then wrench-tighten one to two turns.
Schedule 40 fittings have thinner walls than Schedule 80 fittings and are typically used in commercial and residential applications.
Schedule 80 fittings have thicker, stronger walls than Schedule 40 fittings for heavy duty, industrial chemical processing applications.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

High-Purity Polypropylene Pipe Fittings for Corrosive Chemicals
The inside of these fittings won’t leach contaminants into your line or accumulate particles—they’re polished to an ultra-smooth 12 Ra finish, which also makes them easy to clean. Made of polypropylene, they resist organic solvents, acids, and alkalis better than CPVC fittings. These fittings meet NSF/ANSI 61 for use with drinking water, and they’re FDA compliant for direct contact with food. They also meet ASTM requirements for material and performance, and ISO requirements for dimensions.
Connect them to pipe with socket fusion welding for a strong, permanent bond. Use a socket fusion tool with a heater bushing (sold separately) that matches your pipe size.
Warning: Never use plastic pipe fittings and pipe with compressed air or gas.

High-Flow Quick-Disconnect Tube Couplings for Air and Water

- Temperature Range: Acetal Plastic: 32° to 180° F
Polypropylene Plastic: 32° to 160° F - Tubing: Use with soft or firm (Durometer 55A-95A) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic, polypropylene plastic, polyurethane rubber, PVC plastic or TPE plastic
- Specifications Met: Acetal Plastic: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.2470
Polypropylene Plastic: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1520
A spring-free flow path allows more air or water to pass through these tube couplings at lower line pressures than other quick-disconnect couplings. This reduces turbulence, foaming, bubbles, and blockage. They have a shut-off valve that stops the flow when the coupling is disconnected, so air or water won’t leak from your line. Unlike couplings with a button release, these have a safety slide to reduce accidental separation from bumps or drops. They’re often used in laboratories, pharmaceutical facilities, and other sterile environments. All are FDA compliant for direct contact with food.
When you insert the plug into the socket, it’ll connect with a click. To disconnect, slide the latch on the socket and remove the plug.
Polypropylene plugs and sockets are flexible yet tough, so they keep their shape and strength after repeated use. They are more water resistant than acetal plugs and sockets and can be completely submerged.
End plugs fit in the end of a socket to keep out dirt and debris.
Note: For a complete coupling, order a plug and a socket with the same coupling size.

Plastic Luer Lock Tube Couplings for Air and Water

- For Use With: Nylon Plastic: Air, Water
Polycarbonate Plastic: Air
Polypropylene Plastic: Water - Temperature Range: See table
- Tubing: Use with soft (Durometer 40A-65A) PVC plastic or silicone rubber
Made of plastic, these couplings are lighter in weight than metal luer lock couplings. They're a popular choice in labs because of their versatility—they fit any other luer lock plug, socket, syringe, or needle. Quick to attach and detach, they’re often used in lines that are frequently disconnected. They have a compact body for easy installation in tight spaces. Use them in low-pressure applications. These couplings are open-flow style, so there is no shut-off valve to stop the flow when they’re separated.
Polypropylene couplings won’t absorb water and lose strength, even in high-humidity environments. They also stand up to chemicals, including solvents.
Plugs with a locking ring are more secure than those without a locking ring. Give the ring a half turn to lock these couplings in place. You can’t remove the locking ring.
Plugs without a locking ring are quicker to install and remove than those with a locking ring. Also known as luer slip couplings, all they need is a light push to secure. Add a snap-on ring (sold separately) to lock your coupling in place and color code your line.
Note: For a complete coupling, order a plug and a socket.


Tie plugs with a tether ring to equipment so they’re always where you need them.
Plugs with a vented tip release fluid and gases trapped below the cap, making them a good choice for vacuum applications.

Push-to-Connect Fittings for Plastic Tubing—High-Purity

- For Use With: Air, Nitrogen, Water
- Temperature Range: 32° to 100° F
- Tubing: Use with polypropylene plastic
Also known as instant fittings, these connect to tubing with a push, and an internal gripping ring and O-ring hold the tubing tight. To disconnect, push on the release ring and pull the tubing out of the fitting. Fittings are produced in a clean room and are double bagged to prevent dirt and moisture from contaminating the inside. They are polypropylene, which has excellent impact and abrasion resistance.

Plugs insert into the push-to-connect end of another fitting.

Polypropylene Plastic: -5° to 150° F - Tubing: Use with soft or firm (Durometer 50A-95A) polyolefin plastic, PVC plastic, silicone rubber, TPE plastic, or TPU plastic
To prevent contamination, these couplings are cleaned, double bagged, and packaged in a clean room. This makes them a great choice for applications where cleanliness is critical, such as semiconductor manufacturing. Known for their versatility, they fit any luer lock plug, socket, syringe, or needle. They’re quick to attach and detach, so they’re often used in lines that are frequently disconnected. Thanks to their compact body, they fit in tight spaces. Use them in low-pressure applications.

Cam-and-Groove Hose Couplings for Food and Beverage

Made of FDA listed materials, these couplings are suitable for food and beverage applications and won’t impart tastes or odors to the product. They also meet NSF/ANSI 61 safety standards for use with drinking water systems. A complete coupling consists of a plug and a socket (both sold separately) that allow you to quickly connect and disconnect medium-to large-diameter hose lines. To connect, insert the plug into the socket and press the levers down. The levers fit snugly into the groove on the plug’s body and force the plug against the gasket to form a tight seal. To disconnect, lift both levers and pull out the plug. Plugs and sockets are polypropylene, which is lightweight with good abrasion and corrosion resistance.
Note: To ensure a correct fit, make sure that the plug and socket have the same coupling size.
Warning: Relieve all pressure before disconnecting the couplings. Do not use cam-and-groove couplings with compressed air or gas.
