Lamellar plugs, square
Square lamellar plugs
Lamellar plugs are essential components in the field of pipe and furniture construction. They seal pipe ends, protect them from dirt and moisture and provide an aesthetically pleasing surface. Square lamellar plugs in particular offer a wide range of applications and are available in different sizes and colours. The most important features and variants of these products are presented below.Sizes and pipe dimensions x wall thickness
The square lamellar plugs are available in a variety of sizes to cover different pipe dimensions. The sizes range from small pipe dimensions such as 12x12 mm to larger dimensions of 150x150 mm. The wall thicknesses also vary and are adapted to the respective requirements, starting at 0.5 mm up to 8 mm. This variety enables flexible adaptation to different pipe constructions and areas of application.The exact dimensioning of the pipe dimension x wall thickness is decisive for the selection of the right plug. For example:
- 12x12x0.5-2 mm:These smaller dimensions are ideal for filigree tubular constructions and furniture.
- 150x150x5-8 mm:These larger dimensions are ideal for robust applications, for example in industrial pipe construction.
Immersion depth
The immersion depth of the lamellar plugs varies depending on the model and requirements. Smaller plugs generally have an immersion depth of around 11.5 mm, while larger models can have immersion depths of up to 35 mm. The immersion depth is crucial for the stability and hold of the plugs in the pipe, as it must ensure that the plugs are firmly seated in the pipe and do not fall out.Head height
Another important feature of the lamellar plugs is the head height, which also varies depending on the model. Smaller plugs typically have a head height of around 3 mm, while larger plugs can reach head heights of up to 8 mm. The head height contributes to the aesthetic design and functionality of the plugs by covering and protecting the pipe end.Materials and colours
The lamellar plugs are made of polyethylene (PE), a robust and resistant material that can be used both indoors and outdoors. PE is particularly resistant to moisture, chemicals and mechanical stress, making it ideal for use in various environments. The plugs are available in various colours, including black, grey (similar to RAL 7042) and white (similar to RAL 9003). These colour variants allow the plugs to match the design and colour scheme of the pipes and furniture used.Usage and advantages
The square lamellar plugs are used in many areas, particularly in furniture construction, pipework and mechanical engineering. They offer the following advantages:- Protection against dirt and moisture:The plugs prevent dirt and moisture from entering the pipes and thus protect the interior of the pipes from corrosion and contamination.
- Aesthetic enhancement:They ensure a clean and professional appearance of the pipe ends, which is particularly advantageous in visible areas.
- Simple assembly:Thanks to the lamellar structure, the plugs are easy to insert into the pipes and provide a firm hold without additional adhesive or tools.
- Longevity:The use of high-quality polyethylene ensures that the plugs retain their shape and function even with intensive use and in demanding environments.
