Description

Seal Manifold Mistakes. Securely.

The Goof Plug for .400 Grommet is a heavy-duty repair fitting designed specifically for PVC irrigation manifolds. If you have removed a Top Hat Grommet to change your zone layout, or if you accidentally drilled a hole in the wrong location on your PVC supply line, this plug provides a permanent, watertight seal.

Unlike standard goof plugs used for small drip tubing, this large-diameter plug is engineered to fill the roughly 5/8" (16mm) holes typically drilled for "400 series" grommets. It is one of the most specialized irrigation fittings we offer, ensuring that a simple layout change doesn't require replacing an entire section of PVC pipe.

Why Choose This Specialty Plug?
  • Manifold Saver: Saves you the time and expense of cutting out damaged PVC sections and gluing in new couplings.
  • Precise Fit: Specifically molded to match the hole diameter required by .400 (Top Hat) Grommets, ensuring a snug friction fit that resists popping out under pressure.
  • Durable Material: Manufactured by Jain from high-quality, chemical-resistant plastic to withstand the pressure and environmental conditions of agricultural systems.
  • Easy Installation: Simply push the plug into the grommet hole. The tapered ribs help bite into the pipe wall for a secure hold.

How to Install

Secure your PVC line in seconds.

Step 1: Remove Old Components
If a Top Hat Grommet is currently in the hole, remove it completely. This plug is designed to fit directly into the PVC pipe wall, not inside the grommet.

Step 2: Check the Hole
Ensure the hole is clean and free of large burrs. This plug is designed for holes approximately 5/8" (16mm) in diameter.

Step 3: Insert the Plug
Push the plug firmly into the hole. You may need to use a rubber mallet to gently tap it flush if the fit is tight.

✔ Compatibility Check

Is this the right plug for you?

  • YES: If you have a hole in PVC pipe made for a Top Hat Grommet (approx. 5/8").
  • NO: If you have a hole in 1/2" or 3/4" Poly Tubing made by a standard punch tool (approx. 1/4"). Use a Standard Goof Plug for that.
  • NO: If you are trying to plug the end of a micro-tubing run.
