STP series masking plugs, 600°F

Silicone Tapered Plugs mask many types of holes during powder coating, anodizing, ecoating and plating. Withstand up to 600F and are reusable. Ideal for blind holes, through holes, threaded holes or nearly any round opening that cannot have a coating applied. Flexible enough to use as a masking plug for slightly out-of-round holes too.

The fully cured, high temperature silicone rubber material withstands up to 600°F / 315°C. They will not leach into plating or anodizing tanks and are free of dye or colorings.
