Dimensions & Weight | According to datasheet for metric plugs: for M20 × 1.5, approximate external diameter 24 mm, nominal screw-in length ~ 25 mm, weight ~ 10.1 g (for plastic blanking plug) |
Torque / Tightening | Typical test torques around ~ 2.7 Nm for M20 × 1.5 plugs in some configurations |
Use Cases | Sealing off unused threaded holes, maintaining enclosure IP rating, preparing for future expansion of wiring, closing off cable access points |
Installation & Usage Tips
-
Clean mating threads and sealing surfaces before installation to avoid damage to O-rings or sealing surfaces.
-
Tighten until the seal (if present) compresses—but avoid over-torque that may deform O-ring or damage threads.
-
Ensure that plug’s sealing rating (e.g. IP66, IP68) matches or exceeds the enclosure’s protection requirement.
-
Choose material compatible with environment (e.g. UV exposure, chemical exposure, temperature extremes).
