A plug in sanitation is an object that is used to close a drainage outlet firmly. The insertion of a plug into a drainage outlet allows the container to be filled with water or other fluids. In contrast to screw on caps, plugs are pushed into the hole and are not put over the hole.

Another option for cold climates is the "freeze tolerant ball valve". This style of ball valve incorporates a freeze plug in the side so in the event of a freeze-up, the freeze plug ruptures, acting as a 'sacrificial' fail point, allowing an easier repair. Instead of replacing the whole valve, all that is required is the fitting of a new freeze ...
Bleed screw key Bleed screw key in use at a domestic radiator. On a home radiator unit, the bleed screw can be opened, usually by means of a key, to allow unwanted air to escape from the unit. Bleed screws are also found on some pump types fulfilling a similar purpose. They are most often located at the top of the radiator on the side of the ...
Holes can be possibly made on slides but can result in generation of weld lines. Minimum spacing between 2 holes or a hole and a sidewall should be equal to the diameter of the hole. The hole should be located at a minimum distance of 3 times the diameter from the edge of a part, to minimize stresses.
The breather is often located in the oil cap. Many breathers had a cup or scoop and were located in the air stream of the engine radiator fan. This type of system is called "Pressure-Suction" type and air is forced into the scoop of the breather and by vacuum is draw out by the road draft tube.
A drawing of a fusible plug, showing the tapered core. A fusible plug is a threaded cylinder of metal, usually bronze, brass or gunmetal, with a tapered hole drilled completely through its length. This hole is sealed with a metal of low melting point that flows away if a predetermined high temperature is reached.
Before commercial wall plugs, fixings were made to brick or masonry walls by first chiselling a groove into a soft mortar joint, hammering in a crude wooden plug and then attaching to the wooden plug. This was time consuming and required a large hole, thus more patching of the wall afterwards. It also limited the holes' location to the mortar ...
