Hex Head Plugs is made of various types of metals for long-lasting durability and dependability. A hex head plug is a type of pipe fitting defined as a part used in a piping system. They are the components that are used to connect, end, flow control, and change the direction of the pipes in many different industries with a wide variety of products. They are used in oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and industrial plants.SEF manufactures HEX plugs as per ASME B16.11, DIN, and BS standards. Basically, hex plugs are manufactured with NPT threads and also can be made as per special requirements.
Applications and Uses of Hex Plugs:
Their main use of hex bolts is for heavy-duty applications including:
Engineering applications
All kinds of construction projects
Pipe lines-Oil, Gas, Water
During the erection, repair, and maintenance of buildings, bridges, and road infrastructure
Machinery assemblies
Vehicle and automobiles industries
Electrical transmission towers
Waterline flanged connections
Turbines, Windmills
Subtypes:
Fully threaded hex bolts
Partial threaded hex bolts
Reduce Shanked hex bolts
Collar hex bolts
Forming:
Hot and cold forging
ASME, BS, DIN, ISO, UNI, DIN-EN, ASTM, and all International Standards
The bolt material you choose depends on the type of project. If you need to use bolts outside where they may be exposed to weather, you should use corrosion-resistant material, like steel or titanium. You should select bolt material depending on the weight of the item you’re bolting and the conditions around. Any bolts used near plumbing fixtures or in rooms where they may be exposed to humidity should be selected for water resistance. Hardened or tempered steel creates the strongest bolts. If you’re using hex bolts to secure something that’s going to support a lot of weight, you should get the strongest bolts available.
