HI All,
I am a new user in this blog. working as a Grad Engineer in a O&G Industry. my issue is, I have to decide wheather to use NPT plug or UNF plug in order to permenanetly seal as well as contain pressure of about 2000 psi. hydraulic fluid (oil) is used inside the tool.
this is because of the operator error caused while drilling a port of 1/2" -20UNF (tap dia.453" X deep.437") in a hollow tubular metallic tool. now we have to seal the hole with a blind plug and re-machine another port hole on another side.
bascially I have to analysis the sealing as wells the mechanical strength of the both type of threaded (NPT & UNF) plug to hold atleast of 2500 psi pressure. can u please able to help me in this regard.
ThX,
Ven
