Part 53244 is a 1/16" dryseal pipe plug with hex socket head (hxschd) used to seal threaded ports in high-pressure fluid systems. Designed for Impact410 pumps and SprayTech EP2400/EP2510 piston pumps, this plug prevents fluid leakage from unused ports or access holes. The dryseal threads create a tight, leak-proof seal without requiring additional sealant tape in most applications.

The 53244 Pipe Plug (1/16" dryseal, hex socket head) is a precision-machined component designed to seal threaded ports in high-pressure pump systems. It is commonly used on Impact410 pumps and SprayTech EP2400/EP2510 piston pumps to close off gauge ports, drain holes, or unused accessory ports.
Dryseal threads (also known as NPTF) are engineered to deform slightly during installation, creating a metal-to-metal seal that prevents fluid leakage under high pressure. The hex socket drive allows for secure installation and removal using a standard Allen key, even in tight spaces.
| Port sealing | Closes unused threaded ports to maintain system pressure |
|---|---|
| Leak prevention | Dryseal threads create a tight seal without additional sealants |
| Service access | Removable design allows future access to internal components |
| Leakage | Fluid weeping or spraying from around the plug during operation |
|---|---|
| Thread damage | Cross-threaded, stripped, or galleds threads that won't seal properly |
| Corrosion | Heavy rust or pitting that compromises sealing surface |
| Hex socket wear | Rounded or stripped socket makes removal/installation impossible |
Part 53244 is compatible with the following pump systems. Always confirm fitment using the correct parts diagram for your exact model and revision.
| Pump Model | Component |
|---|---|
| Impact410 Pump | 1/16" dryseal pipe plug |
| SprayTech EP2400 Piston Pump | 1/16" dryseal pipe plug |
| SprayTech EP2510 Piston Pump | 1/16" dryseal pipe plug |
When servicing pump ports or addressing leaks, these components are often inspected or replaced at the same time.
Deteriorated O-rings in adjacent components can also cause leaks and should be inspected.
If removing a plug to install a gauge or accessory, ensure compatibility with port threads.
For certain fluids or repeated installations, high-pressure thread sealant may be recommended.
