ASME SA105 Forged Carbon Steel Plug for High Pressure Industrial Piping Systems
ASME SA105 Forged Carbon Steel Plug for Industrial Piping
Product Overview
ASME SA105 plug is a forged carbon steel piping component manufactured from ASTM A105 / ASME SA105 carbon steel forging material.
The plug is used to close, isolate, or terminate openings in piping and pressure equipment. Depending on the equipment design, plugs can be supplied with different connection configurations, dimensions, and machining requirements.
ASME SA105 plugs are commonly used in industrial piping systems, valves, pressure equipment, and forged fittings where carbon steel pressure components are specified.
