Hollow Flanged Pull Plugs

Hollow Flanged Pull Plugs - HFPP-SH SERIES

Purpose
Ultrabake™ Hollow Flanged Pull Plugs are designed to mask plain and threaded holes; they will mask off the hole and the first thread of a threaded hole.

How the product is used
The narrow end of the plug is placed into a hole, and is then pulled through the hole. As the plug is pulled the larger diameter stretches and becomes smaller, allowing the plug to fit through the hole, the flanged diameter at the end of the plug can then be pulled up to mask the face of the first thread of a thereaded hole. Once the plug is in position and the plug is released, it forms a tight seal on the hole. The plugs are completely hollow so they are more flexible and coating liquid can pass through the center of the plug.

The plug is removed by pulling on the smaller diameter.
