The Wilwood Caliper Plug, Part Number 220-0098, is designed to close a compatible brake caliper port with a 1/8-27 NPT threaded connection. It provides a practical solution for sealing an unused or relocated port during brake system assembly, service, or configuration changes. The plug helps maintain a clean installation while supporting proper fluid containment in applications that use compatible Wilwood caliper components.
Use this plug when a threaded caliper opening must be sealed without adding unnecessary fittings or hose connections. The 1/8-27 NPT thread specification is commonly used for compact hydraulic connections, but thread compatibility should always be confirmed before installation. Check the specific caliper model, port location, and manufacturer recommendations to ensure the 220-0098 is appropriate for your brake system.
For best results, clean the threaded port and inspect both mating surfaces before installation. Apply a brake-system-compatible thread sealant only when recommended for the application, and tighten the plug according to the applicable Wilwood service guidance. Do not use sealant in a way that could enter the hydraulic circuit. After installation, inspect the area for signs of leakage and verify the brake system operates correctly before returning the vehicle to service. This Wilwood replacement component is not restricted to air shipment and does not require truck freight handling.
