1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Slip Plug

1 Inch PVC Schedule 40 Slip Plug – Solvent Weld Closure for Non-Pressurized Systems

The 1 inch PVC Schedule 40 Slip Plug is a solvent-weld fitting designed to close off unused openings in non-pressurized drainage, waste, and vent (DWV) systems. Manufactured for compatibility with Schedule 40 pipe, this plug allows for system terminations and test points in compliance with standard plumbing code requirements.

Key Product Characteristics

• ✅ PVC Construction – Fabricated from rigid, corrosion-resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for use in DWV systems.
• ✅ Slip Connection – Smooth hub end designed for solvent welding into a standard 1-inch Schedule 40 socket fitting.
• ✅ Non-Threaded Cap – Provides a permanent seal when solvent-cemented, suitable for long-term system closure or cleanout access when required.
• ✅ Schedule 40 Rated – Compatible with ASTM D2665 and designed for gravity-flow plumbing applications.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
• Nominal Size: 1 inch
• Connection Type: Slip (solvent weld)
• System Type: Drain, Waste, and Vent (DWV)
• Compliance: Meets ASTM D2665 and NSF 14 for DWV applications

Typical Applications

The 1 inch Schedule 40 PVC Slip Plug is used to cap off branches of DWV systems or to temporarily seal openings for testing. It is commonly installed in:

• Residential drainage and vent systems
• Cleanout terminations during inspection or pressure testing
• Non-pressurized utility piping systems requiring a closed end

Installation Guidelines

Apply approved solvent cement per manufacturer instructions. Ensure the pipe and plug surfaces are clean, dry, and properly inserted to full depth. Hold briefly in place to allow bonding before moving or pressurizing the system. This plug is not intended for use in pressurized piping networks.

The 1 Inch PVC Schedule 40 Slip Plug provides a straightforward and code-compliant means of sealing unused outlets in gravity-flow piping systems. It supports reliable closure in both new construction and maintenance applications.
