A must-have for engineers and technicians, Flexible Blanking Plugs are ideal for sealing irregular or round panel openings with ease.
What are Flexible Blanking Plugs?
Flexible Blanking Plugs are circular sealing components used to fill and protect unused holes in metal panels, casings, or equipment housings. Designed for quick installation without the need for tools, these plugs conform to uneven or imperfect holes, thanks to their flexible construction. Smaller sizes are typically made from PVC, while larger sizes are manufactured from TPR rubber, allowing them to perform in a wider range of temperatures and demanding conditions. These plugs are used to prevent the ingress of dirt, dust, and moisture, while also offering a tidy visual finish for panels and machinery.
