Threaded Connection & Gasket
MIPT Connection
The male threaded connection is designed to screw into a compatible female-threaded cleanout adapter, fitting, or access opening.
Gasket Seal
The included gasket provides the sealing interface between the plug and mating component, helping create a secure, leak-resistant closure when properly installed.
Construction Details
The plug is manufactured from virgin ABS polymer material suitable for molded fittings and ABS drainage systems.
Precision-molded male threads provide a removable connection to compatible female-threaded components, while the gasket helps seal the opening during normal drainage system operation.
Because the plug can be removed, the fitting is well suited for cleanout locations where future inspection, cleaning, or maintenance access is required.

Installation
Verify the nominal MIPT size before installation and confirm compatibility with the intended female-threaded cleanout adapter or fitting.
Inspect the threads and gasket before installation. Make sure the gasket is clean, properly positioned, and free from cuts, deformation, or other damage.
Start the plug by hand to help prevent cross-threading, then tighten only enough to properly seat and compress the gasket.
Avoid excessive tightening and avoid incompatible thread sealants or chemicals that may damage ABS compounds or interfere with the gasket seal.
Our piping specialists can help review your thread size, cleanout fitting, gasket requirements, and ABS DWV compatibility before you order.

What is an ABS DWV plug with gasket used for?
It is used to close compatible female-threaded cleanout openings and other service access points in non-pressure ABS DWV systems.
What does MIPT mean?
MIPT means Male Iron Pipe Thread. The external threads are designed to connect to a compatible female-threaded opening.
What is the purpose of the gasket?
The gasket provides the sealing interface between the plug and mating fitting, helping create a secure, leak-resistant closure.
Can the plug be removed later?
Yes. The threaded design allows the plug to be removed for drain cleaning, inspection, or maintenance.
Is this fitting intended for pressure systems?
No. This plug is intended for non-pressure drain, waste, vent, sewer, and general drainage applications.
Can it be used for compressed air or gas?
No. The supplied product information specifically states that ABS DWV fittings are not intended for transporting compressed air or gas.
Can this fitting be used for pressure testing?
No. The supplied product information states that ABS DWV fittings should not be used for pressure testing.
What is the maximum operating temperature?
The supplied product information specifies applications where operating temperatures do not exceed 140°F.
Should the gasket be inspected before reuse?
Yes. Inspect the gasket for cuts, cracking, deformation, hardening, swelling, or other damage before reinstalling the plug.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the nominal MIPT size, mating female-threaded cleanout fitting, gasket requirements, operating temperature, and intended drainage application.
