Spears P106 PVC DWV Square Head Cleanout Plug, MPT
The Spears P106 PVC DWV Square Head Cleanout Plug is a durable drain-waste-vent (DWV) fitting engineered to provide a reliable, removable access point for clearing blockages in plumbing drain lines. Molded from rigid PVC, this cleanout plug is manufactured with a male pipe thread (MPT) connection that threads directly into a matching PVC DWV cleanout fitting, and a raised square head that allows the plug to be quickly loosened or tightened with a wrench or pliers. The P106 series is available in trade sizes from 2" through 3", making it a versatile choice for residential and commercial drainage systems that require periodic cleanout access without sacrificing a watertight, code-compliant seal.
Key Features
- Trade Size Range: Available in 2" and 3" sizes to fit a variety of DWV cleanout applications.
- Durable PVC Construction: Molded from rigid PVC for corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and long service life in drain-waste-vent piping systems.
- MPT Connection: Male pipe thread (MPT) connection allows the plug to thread securely into a matching DWV cleanout fitting or adapter.
- Square Head Design: Raised square head provides positive engagement for a wrench, making removal and reinstallation fast during drain cleaning and maintenance.
- Lightweight Material: PVC construction is lighter and easier to handle than comparable metal cleanout plugs, simplifying installation and service.
- Leak-Resistant Seal: Threaded MPT design helps maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal at the cleanout access point.

Spears P106-020 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Spears P106 cleanout plug thread into a PVC DWV cleanout tee or adapter?
Yes. The P106 is a male pipe thread (MPT) plug, so it threads into the female threaded socket of a matching PVC DWV cleanout fitting or adapter. It is not a slip or hub fitting, so there is nothing to solvent weld on the plug itself. If the opening you are capping is a smooth socket rather than a threaded one, you need a threaded cleanout adapter first, then this plug.
2) What sizes does the Spears P106 square head cleanout plug come in?
Two trade sizes: 2 inch (P106-020) and 3 inch (P106-030). Size the plug to the thread size of the cleanout fitting, not to the pipe run it sits on, since a 3 inch line with a reducing cleanout adapter may still take a 2 inch plug.
3) Can I back a PVC cleanout plug out with a pipe wrench without wrecking it?
The P106 has a raised square head made for positive wrench or plier engagement, which is what lets you break it loose and reset it during drain cleaning. It is rigid PVC, not metal, so snug it by hand plus a short pull rather than cranking on a long cheater bar.
4) Is a PVC cleanout plug a good swap for a corroded brass or cast iron plug?
For PVC DWV work, yes, provided the threads in the cleanout fitting are sound. PVC will not seize up from corrosion the way a metal plug in a cast iron ferrule does, it resists chemical attack from drain cleaners, and it is lighter to handle. What it will not do is thread into a cast iron cleanout ferrule, which uses a different taper and sealing arrangement, so use this on PVC DWV cleanout fittings and adapters.
5) Is this a DWV drainage plug or a pressure pipe plug?
Drain-waste-vent only. The P106 is a PVC DWV fitting for gravity drainage, cleanout access, and sewer piping, used in residential and commercial drain lines. Do not use it to cap a pressurized water or irrigation line.
6) Do I need pipe dope or tape on a PVC DWV cleanout plug?
The threaded MPT design is what makes the seal at the cleanout, so the joint depends on clean, undamaged threads and a proper hand-tight plus wrench set. Many plumbers add a thread sealant rated for plastic to ease future removal; avoid aggressive over-tightening, which is the usual cause of a cracked PVC plug or a split socket.
7) I manage apartment buildings and want one cleanout plug to standardize on. Is this it?
For PVC DWV risers and branch cleanouts, stocking the P106 in 2 inch and 3 inch covers most unit-level and branch cleanout openings, and the square head means your maintenance crew uses one wrench on every door. Buildings with cast iron stacks will still need metal plugs for those ferrules, so expect a second item for older sections.
