A compression plug system for plumbing, consisting of:
- A) a plumbing pipe (20) consisting of external wall (22), end (24) and end (26);
- B) a slip nut (30) consisting of external wall (34), end (32), and end (36), extending from said end (26) is an internal threaded portion (38) that extends to an internal peripheral flange (40), said internal peripheral flange (40) extends to said end (32), said internal peripheral flange (40) defines an opening (42), said external wall (34) extends approximately a same longitudinally distance as said internal threaded portion (38), said opening (42) has a third cooperative dimension to snugly receive said pipe (20) therethrough, said slip nut (30) mounted directly onto said plumbing pipe (20);
- C) a seal ring (50) consisting of a body (54) and an internal wall (58), angularly extending from each end of said body (54) are ledge (52) and ledge (56) of equal length, said internal wall (58) has a first cooperative dimension to receive said end (26) of said pipe (20) therethrough, said seal ring (50) is made of a malleable and ductile metal;
- and
- D) a plug (70) consisting of a head (74) having closed end (72) and an external threaded portion (76) having edge (82), extending from said head (74) is said external threaded portion (76) that extends to said edge (82), said external threaded portion (76) has a second cooperative dimension to engage with said internal threaded portion (38) of said slip nut (30), said plug (70) also has an internal wall (80) that extends from said edge (82) until an internal end (78), said plug (70) further consists of an opening (84) defining a cavity therein that reaches said internal end (78), said internal wall (80) has substantially a same diameter as said internal wall (58) of said seal ring (50), said seal ring (50) deforming as said external threaded portion (76) engages with said internal threaded portion (38) of said slip nut (30), said compression plug system for tubes and pipes (10) is assembled by mounting said slip nut (30) onto said pipe (20) by passing said opening (42) over said end (26) of said pipe (20), then sliding said seal ring (50) thereon, then mounting said plug (70) onto said pipe (20) and screwing it on with a sufficient force to compress said seal ring (50) in between said edge (82) and said internal peripheral flange (40), thus creating an impermeable seal without the aid of a sealing compound or weld, said sufficient force compresses said seal ring (50) in between said edge (82) and said internal peripheral flange (40) to fill in cavities within said internal threaded portion (38) to create said impermeable seal, further characterized in that upon removal of said plug (70), said seal ring (50) is kept in place and a faucet F may be installed onto said pipe (20), said slip nut (30), and said seal ring (50).
