A plug serves as a sealing closure for ports, passages, or cavities within a machine's hydraulic, lubrication, or structural systems. It prevents fluid from escaping an open port and blocks contaminants from entering when a line, sensor, or fitting is removed or not in use. When a plug fails — through cross-threading, cracking, or corrosion — the result can be fluid leaks, system pressure loss, or contamination that damages downstream components. Using the correct OEM plug for your BC-series refuse or landfill compactor ensures the seal holds under the operating pressures and environmental conditions these heavy-duty machines routinely encounter.
