EPDM Pull Plugs, 350°F (anodizing, plating, painting, and grit blasting applications)

Viadon's EPDM Pull Plugs (EPP's) perform an important masking task - masking a through-hole in it's entirety with a single plug. How does it work, you ask? Place the narrow diameter end through the hole and pull the large diameter end through the hole (pretty smart to call them "pull-plugs", huh?). These indispensable masking aids reduce your costs for masking by speeding the masking process. Instead of using two tapered plugs, use one pull plug!

These plugs can withstand temperatures up to 350°F / 177°C, have great chemical resistance, and are ideal for plating, anodizing, and many painting applications.

  • Masking 101 Helpful Hints

    When sizing for EPDM Pull Plugs (EPP's), look for the major (larger) diameter of the plug to be approximately 2 - 4% larger than the hole when used for wet spray, and 3 - 7% larger for applications where the part is immersed in fluid (plating, anodizing, e-coating) to ensure the best seal.

    • EPP's are ideal for use in plating, anodizing, and painting applications.
    • EPP's offer great chemical resistance.
    • HINT: If the plug is a bit on the large side for the hole, but no smaller stock size is available/suitable for the hole, try dipping the plug in water, alcohol, or some other liquid to lubricate it before pulling the plug into place.
    • HINT: Pull plugs can sometimes be, "backed in" to a hole - in other words, try pushing the plug "large end first" into shallow, blind holes, which may stay in place and mask more effectively than a tapered plug.
