FAQ

What size tubing does the M18 x 1.5 plug fit?

The plug is designed for standard M18 x 1.5 threaded tube fittings, which accommodate a wide range of tube diameters commonly used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.

Can the plug be reused after removal?

Yes, the plug is fully reusable. Its stainless steel ferrule and hex head maintain their integrity after multiple installation cycles, provided proper torque specifications are followed.

Is the plug compatible with high‑temperature fluids?

The 304 stainless steel material tolerates temperatures up to 500 °F (260 °C), making it suitable for many high‑temperature fluid applications while preserving its sealing performance.

What is the recommended torque setting for installation?

We recommend a torque of 8–10 Nm (Newton‑meters) using a calibrated wrench to achieve optimal sealing without over‑tightening the threads.

How does the outer hex head improve installation?

The outer hex head provides a larger surface area for wrench engagement, allowing technicians to apply consistent torque quickly and reducing the risk of stripping the internal threads during assembly.
