DAVISON, MI – May 1, 2025 – Fernco, a trusted manufacturer of flexible plumbing solutions, is pleased to announce the North American launch of the Fernco Access Point Plug—a straightforward and dependable solution for creating cleanouts or inspection points in 3"–6" plastic and cast iron pipes.
Already proven successful through earlier adoption in the UK and European markets, the Access Point is now available to plumbing and drain professionals across North America. Designed for ease of use, this plug installs directly into a drilled opening in the pipe wall and expands to create a watertight seal, helping simplify access for maintenance, inspection, and cleaning.
Key Features
- Fast, No-Hassle Installation: Use a 2-1/8” hole saw to create the opening, then secure the plug with a 6mm Allen wrench—no adhesives, tape, or sealants needed.
- Reliable, Watertight Seal: Expanding rubber gasket forms a tight, leak-resistant seal rated up to 14.5 PSI.
- Tough, Long-Lasting Materials: Constructed with EPDM rubber, glass-filled nylon, and 304 stainless steel for lasting performance under pressure..
- Low-Profile Design: Minimally intrusive, sits flush with the pipe for safe, unobstructed access—ideal for both above ground and below ground use.
