Cherne 273328 pipe plug for 2 in pipes
The Cherne 273328 pipe plug fits 2 in pipes with an inside diameter between 1.96 in and 2.25 in. It uses a stainless steel wing nut for expansion and sealing. The overall height is 2.62 in. No water fill port or hose is included with this unit.
Tested back-pressure ratings for air and water
The plug withstands a maximum back pressure of 2 psi for air. For water it holds up to 5 ft of head. These figures define the safe working limits during pressure testing or temporary line isolation.
Stainless steel handle and plate for durability
Both the handle and the sealing plate are stainless steel, resisting corrosion in wet environments. The wing nut allows hand tightening without tools. A padlock shackle diameter is not applicable on this model.

Questions about this item
How do you install the Cherne 273328 pipe plug and what step is often missed?
Insert the plug into a 2 in pipe with an inside diameter between 1.96 in and 2.25 in, then tighten the wing nut by hand until the stainless steel plate expands to seal; the step often missed is confirming the pipe ID falls in that range before insertion.
What maintenance or replacement will the Cherne 273328 pipe plug need later?
Inspect the stainless steel plate and handle for corrosion or deformation after each use; replace the plug if the expansion mechanism no longer seals at 2 psi air or 5 ft of head water pressure.
What limit appears first when the Cherne 273328 pipe plug is under sustained pressure?
The 2 psi maximum back pressure for air is reached before the 5 ft of head water limit, so air testing will hit the plug's pressure ceiling first during sustained use.
