Blanking Plugs

Blanking Plugs, also know as Blanking Caps or Hole Blanking Plugs, are used in the sheet metal industry. They provide protection against sharp edges, and are ideal for closing panel cavities. A handy hole plug, they protect against dust and other forms of ingress during the cleaning and manufacturing process.

Our range features rubber hole blanking plugs made from black Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) or black Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). Benefiting from acid resistance, these panel plugs are ideal for metal panels. The PVC version can withstand temperatures of up to 50C, and the TPR option can withstand temperatures ranging between -40C and 135C - making it a super versatile choice.

We also have a range plastic blanking plugs in black Ethylene-butylacrylate Copolymer (EBA) plug blanking options - suitable in applications where body plugs are required to protect against sharp edges. This plug can withstand temperatures from -30C up to a maximum of +50C. Perhaps browse our range of hole plugs made from clear copolyester - a strong thermoplastic resin that's highly popular. This blanking plug features a flat head that helps minimise distortion.

Blanking caps offer a clean finish and are and easy to use, quick solution. They large selection to suit hole diameter and panel thickness, so you are sure to find an option to suit your application needs.

Domed Blanking Plugs

These Domed Blanking Plugs are suitable for sealing sheet metal panel cavities. They are designed to seal off gaps in equipment or machinery, in the sheet metal sector, as a safeguard against sharp edges. They also act as a secure barrier that prevents dust, dirt, moisture, and other contaminants from entering.

The domed form offers a nice and clean finish and helps to deflect impacts, lowering the chance of damage to the plug or the equipment that is inserted into. They are corrosion resistant and provide electrical insulation.

Simple to install; they are made to fit tightly into the opening that they are sealing, ensuring a snug and secure fit. They come in a large offering to suit many hole diameters and panel thicknesses, and can be used in industries that include manufacturing, construction, and electronics.

  • Provides corrosion resistantance and electrical insulation.
  • Acts as a barrier that prevents dust, dirt, moisture, and other contaminants from entering.
  • Fits tightly into the opening they are sealing, ensuring a secure fit.
