1449-015 is a durable PVC insert plug engineered to close the end of flexible polyethylene (PE) tubing in irrigation and low-pressure potable water applications. The barbed insert creates a tight seal when used with a worm-drive clamp; Schedule 40 PVC construction provides corrosion resistance and long service life.

  • Material: High-quality Schedule 40 PVC (Type 1, cell classification per ASTM D1784).
  • Size & fit: Nominal 1-1/2 in insert designed for use with PE tubing; barbed profile for secure connection.
  • Standards: Manufactured to meet ASTM and NSF performance standards commonly listed for insert fittings (NSF 14 and NSF 61 where specified).
  • Application: Ideal for irrigation, landscape, pump and pool low-pressure cold-water systems; not intended for compressed air or hot plumbing systems.
  • Installation: Push the barb into tubing and secure with a stainless steel worm-drive clamp (clamp sold separately) for a reliable, leak-resistant seal.

This insert plug offers a practical, corrosion-resistant solution for closing PE tubing runs. Check tubing OD and clamp compatibility before installation. For technical specifications or certifications specific to a manufacturer's lot, consult product labeling or the manufacturer’s documentation.
