Abstract

See full text

A screw plug for a liquid conduit, particularly an oil pipe or an oil container, comprising a cylindrical shaft that is placed on a top plate and is provided with an external thread. A pocket hole having a polygonal cross section is centrally arranged on the top plate as a receiving member for a tool. The shaft is embodied as a tubular butt that is provided with the external thread. A pocket hole which is arranged coaxial to the pocket hole of the top plate extends from the face of the shaft. In order to produce the screw plug, a blank comprising the cylindrical tubular butt that is connected to the top plate in a molded on manner is made, the inner diameter and outer diameter of the tubular butt being smaller than the final corresponding diameters (e, f) of the screw plug. The tubular butt of the blank is then enlarged by applying pressure to the inner wall surface of the pocket hole thereof. Also disclosed is a tool in which one end of a pressure die is fixed as a mandrel-type tool while a supporting or holding head which is disposed so as to be movable relative thereto and encompass a seat for a blank is associated with the free end thereof.
