1600 Series – Gauge Plugs & Probes

The Taylor Gauge Plug and Probe System™ has been a standard in the oil field since 1959. Taylor Gauge Plugs are found on wellheads, flow lines, and pressure vessels – where accurate pressures are required. They are also used in water purification systems, steel mills, and chemical and manufacturing plants throughout the world.

The small area of the stainless needle means that only a 6 lb. push per 1,000 psi in the system is required to force the probe into the Gauge Plug® and open the valve. Lock-On-Probes are recommended where the pressure or sample device is to be mounted onto the Gauge Plug® or where the pressure on the Gauge Plug® exceeds 5,000 psi.
