Sioux Chief 87911 Slotted Polypropylene Test Plug, 8790 Series, Less Insert

The Sioux Chief 87911 is a slotted test plug from the 8790 Series, molded from reinforced polypropylene and supplied less insert (no threaded brass insert included). The 8790 Series slotted test plug platform is available in sizes from 1-1/2" through 4" to match ABS or PVC drain, waste, and vent pipe and fittings during rough-in pressure and leak testing. Across the size range, every plug in the series shares the same reinforced polypropylene construction, slotted removal design, and less-insert configuration, seating into pipe without binding or seizing over repeated test cycles. This is a trade rough-in component intended for plumbers and contractors sealing pipe runs prior to wall and floor closure, not a finish or decorative fitting.

Key Features

  • Size Range: 8790 Series slotted test plugs are offered in 1-1/2", 2", 3", and 4" nominal sizes for matching ABS or PVC drain, waste, and vent lines.
  • Durable Construction: Reinforced polypropylene material resists seizing on ABS or PVC pipe, is chemical-resistant, and outperforms traditional plug materials in durability.
  • Slotted Design: Slotted plug head allows for straightforward insertion and removal during test-and-seal operations.
  • Less Insert Configuration: Supplied without the threaded brass insert; the 8790 Series is also available with a threaded brass insert for installations requiring a reusable access port.
  • Series Compatibility: Part of the Sioux Chief 8790 Series test plug line, allowing consistent sizing and fit across related plug configurations.

Why Sioux Chief?

Sioux Chief builds every size in the 8790 Series test plug line from reinforced polypropylene specifically so it won't seize onto ABS or PVC pipe the way traditional plug materials can after repeated test cycles. That chemical-resistant, durable construction, consistent across the 1-1/2" through 4" range, gives plumbers and contractors a plug they can rely on to seat, hold, and release cleanly during rough-in pressure testing, backed by Sioux Chief's long history supplying rough-in plumbing hardware to the trade.

Sioux Chief 879-015 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What sizes does the Sioux Chief 8790 Series slotted test plug come in?
Four nominal sizes: 1-1/2 inch (879-015), 2 inch (879-020), 3 inch (879-030), and 4 inch (879-040). Sizing matches ABS or PVC drain, waste, and vent pipe and fittings, so you order by the nominal pipe size you are plugging.
2) Does the Sioux Chief 87911 test plug come with the threaded brass insert?
No. The 87911 is the less-insert configuration, so no threaded brass insert is included. If you need a reusable threaded access port in the plug, order the 8790 Series version supplied with the brass insert instead.
3) Will a polypropylene test plug seize in ABS or PVC pipe after repeated test cycles?
That is the reason for the material choice. The 8790 Series plug is molded from reinforced polypropylene, which resists seizing on ABS or PVC and is chemical resistant, so it seats and releases over repeated rough-in test cycles rather than binding in the hub.
4) How many test plugs are in a pack of Sioux Chief 879-020?
The 8790 Series slotted plugs are packaged 25 each per pack. For a multi-unit rough-in that usually covers a floor's worth of stub-outs without reordering.
5) What is the slot on the 8790 Series test plug head for?
The slotted head is a drive feature for insertion and removal. You set the plug with a screwdriver or flat bar in the slot and back it out the same way when the test is done and the line is ready to be opened up.
6) What color are the Sioux Chief 8790 slotted test plugs, and does it matter on the job?
Black. On a rough-in it is a quick visual check for which stub-outs are still plugged before you call for the test, and it distinguishes the plug from white PVC or black ABS hubs it is seated in.
