Description
PVC SDR 35 Cleanout Plug (MPT)
PVC SDR 35 Cleanout Plugs provide a removable threaded closure for cleanout openings in non-pressure sewer and drainage systems.
Featuring a male pipe thread (MPT) connection, this cleanout plug is designed to thread into a compatible female cleanout fitting and seal the access opening during normal system operation. When inspection, cleaning, or maintenance is required, the plug can be removed to provide access to the sewer or drainage line. Constructed from durable PVC, it offers resistance to corrosion, moisture, and many compatible chemicals for dependable use in sanitary sewer, stormwater, wastewater, and underground drainage applications.

Connection Configuration
Male Pipe Thread
The MPT connection is designed to thread into a compatible female cleanout fitting or adapter.
Removable Cleanout Closure
The plug seals the cleanout opening during normal service while remaining removable for inspection, cleaning, and maintenance access.
Cleanout Plug Design
The threaded plug provides a simple serviceable closure for a compatible cleanout opening.
During normal system operation, the plug remains installed to close the access point. When maintenance is required, it can be unthreaded to expose the sewer or drain line without cutting into the piping system.
The reusable threaded design makes the plug suitable for cleanout locations that may require repeated access over the life of the drainage system.

Construction Details
Manufactured from durable PVC, this cleanout plug is designed for long-term use in sewer and drainage environments.
The PVC material provides resistance to corrosion, moisture, and many compatible chemicals commonly encountered in underground drainage applications.
The male threaded connection allows repeated installation and removal while maintaining access to compatible cleanout fittings.
Installation
Verify the nominal MPT size and confirm compatibility with the female-threaded cleanout fitting before installation.
Inspect both the plug threads and mating female threads for dirt, damage, or debris that could interfere with proper engagement.
Use only a thread-sealing method that is compatible with PVC and approved for the intended sewer or drainage application.
Thread the plug into the fitting by hand first to ensure proper engagement and avoid cross-threading.
Tighten only as required to obtain a secure closure. Avoid excessive torque, which can damage PVC threads or the mating fitting.
Keep the cleanout accessible after installation so the plug can be removed when inspection or maintenance is required.
Our piping specialists can help review your cleanout size, female thread connection, SDR 35 system requirements, and sewer or drainage application before you order.

What is a PVC SDR 35 cleanout plug used for?
It is used to close a threaded cleanout opening while allowing the opening to be accessed later for inspection, cleaning, or maintenance.
What does MPT mean?
MPT means male pipe thread. The plug has external threads designed to fit into a compatible female-threaded cleanout connection.
What type of fitting does this plug connect to?
It connects to a compatible female pipe thread (FPT) cleanout fitting or adapter of the correct nominal size.
Can the plug be removed after installation?
Yes. The threaded design allows the plug to be removed and reinstalled when maintenance access is required.
What maintenance can be performed through a cleanout?
Cleanout access may be used for inspection, flushing, rodding, cleaning, and clearing compatible sewer or drainage lines.
Should this plug be solvent welded?
No. The MPT connection is threaded and should remain removable for cleanout access.
Can any thread sealant be used?
No. Use only a thread-sealing method that is compatible with PVC and approved for the intended sewer or drainage application.
Should the plug be overtightened?
No. Excessive tightening can damage the PVC threads, plug, or mating fitting.
Is this plug intended for pressure piping?
No. The supplied product information identifies it for non-pressure SDR 35 sewer and drainage applications.
Can it be used underground?
Yes. The supplied product information identifies underground sewer and drainage systems as intended applications.
Can it be used for sanitary sewer, stormwater, and wastewater systems?
Yes. The supplied product information identifies these as typical non-pressure applications.
What should I verify before ordering?
Confirm the MPT size, mating female thread size, SDR 35 system compatibility, and intended sewer or drainage application.
