looking into getting something with a hex socket so it'll be easier to remove.

anyone know? it looks like a pipe plug, since it appears to seat on the threads.

no one? someone suggested teflon tape or pipe dope to make it easier to get out next time.

i tried to do some searching and i couldn't find anything on the thread or pitch, so taking to a hardware store might be the best bet however it might be too big to be something thats conventional so you may need to go somewhere that makes hardware exclusively

i would just get a new one and use teflon tape or maybe anti seize

mcfadden-dale in santa ana (edinger/richey) has a warehouse full of bolts and nuts, but not much of a selection for pipe. hope i find something there.

Well from all your posts you could have spent less time by taking a thread pitch gauge out there and seeing what the threads were and a mic to see the size!! Its not hard. I personally don't know the answer off the top of my head. But it would not take you 5 mins to findout yourself.
