Moeller 5/8 in Brass Baitwell / Bailer Plug
Moeller 5/8 in Brass Baitwell / Bailer Plug — Product description
This Moeller baitwell and bailer plug is turned from solid brass and sized at 5/8 inch, the common drain diameter on small boats and skiffs. It seals your livewell or bailer fitting and shrugs off saltwater without rusting. Simple, honest hardware, and the kind of spare you'll want in the parts bin before you need it.
When your baitwell or bailer drain needs a plug that won't corrode after a season in saltwater, brass is the way to go. This Moeller plug is turned from solid brass and sized at 5/8 inch, a common drain diameter on small boats, jon boats, and bay skiffs. It drops in, seals up, and keeps your livewell holding water or your bailer sealed while you run.
Brass is the right material for a part like this. It shrugs off salt and won't rust the way a plated steel plug will, and that matters on a plug you're pulling and reseating all the time. We keep a few of these in the parts bin because they're the kind of thing you don't think about until the old one cracks or goes missing at the ramp.
It's a simple part, but a good one. If you've got a 5/8 inch baitwell or bailer fitting, this is a clean, direct replacement. Keep a spare aboard. You'll be glad you did the day the original walks off the boat.
