Purpose

Ultrabake™ Step Plugs are designed to mask plain and threaded holes; they will mask off the hole and leave a small circular grounding or earthing area around the hole.

How the product is used

The plug is applied by pushing the tapered end into the hole until the larger diameter rests against the face of the area to be masked. They are removed by pulling on the handle.
