Designed specifically for the high-capacity, side-mounted 1.5-inch and 2-inch ABS multiport valves used across Sta-Rite® and Pentair System:2™ or System:3® modular diatomaceous earth (D.E.) and sand filter lines, this plug provides an airtight mechanical seal to block pressurized water from weeping or escaping the valve body housing. Precision injection-molded from a premium, thick-walled engineering polymer composite, the plug features deep external threads that lock securely into the matching female plumbing port, completely eliminating external leaks or catastrophic suction-side air induction under system operating lines up to 50 PSI. The rugged plastic matrix delivers complete immunity to harsh sanitizing chemistry, advanced oxidation from salt-chlorine generation, and seasonal pump room thermal friction without stripping, distorting, or bonding over time.
