The votes are in… Petey finally picked a costume!

After trying out everything from detective to cowboy to Count Plugula, Petey decided there was really only one choice that made sense:
SUPER PETEY!

Because costumes may change, but one thing doesn’t Petey is always ready to save the day on the job site!

Reliable readings. No unnecessary shutdowns. And nearly 60 years of being the little plug professionals can count on.
Some heroes wear capes.
Some come with a cap and retaining strap.

Happy Halloween from Super Petey and the Pete’s Plug® team!

Every Pete’s Plug® passes through 3 sets of hands and a 12-point inspection process before it leaves our facility.
Why? Because we believe the people behind the product matter.
For nearly 60 years, that attention to detail has been part of how we do things. Technology may change and processes may evolve, but our standard remains the same:
Build it right. Inspect it carefully. Make it worthy of the Pete’s Plug® name.
This Manufacturing Month, we’re proud to celebrate the skilled hands behind every plug we make. 🇺🇸

Petey has a problem… he still hasn’t picked his Halloween costume.
Help Petey decide! Which costume should he wear for Halloween? Drop your vote below.

And remember… Petey might be able to disguise himself, but the real Pete’s Plug® is a little easier to spot.
Look for the name. Know the real deal!

Even the cap was designed to make your job easier.

When our founder created Pete’s Plug®, he thought about more than just taking pressure and temperature readings. He thought about the little frustrations that happen in the field, like where did I put that cap?

That’s why the Pete’s Plug® cap features a retaining strap designed to keep it attached to the plug while you’re taking a reading, helping prevent it from being misplaced.

And the color? That has a job, too.
Yellow = Nordel® (EPDM) — designed for water and hydronic applications
Blue = Neoprene — designed for natural gas and petroleum-based applications
So with one quick glance, you can identify the core inside.

Think you know a Pete’s Plug® when you see one?

Not everything labeled “Pete’s Plug” online is the real deal and some knockoffs can look pretty convincing at first glance.

So, how do you know you’re getting an authentic Pete’s Plug®?
There are a few telltale signs, starting with one of the easiest: look for our name stamped on the plug.
But that’s not the only thing to check.
We put together a quick guide covering what to look for, what to avoid, and how to make sure the Pete’s Plug® you’re buying is the genuine article.

Head to our website to read “How to Know You Have an Authentic Pete’s Plug®.”

You can spot the Pete’s Plug® name on the outside… but it’s what’s inside that truly sets it apart.

Underneath that familiar stamp is a design that has been trusted for decades: two self-closing valves working together, a valve body and retainer, plus the cap and retaining strap that complete the design.

Because being the real deal isn’t just about having our name on the outside. It’s about the engineering, quality, and attention to detail built into the inside.

The stamp helps you spot an authentic Pete’s Plug®.
What’s inside is why professionals keep reaching for it.

Pete’s Plug® has been trusted in the field for decades and unfortunately, when you build a name people recognize, lookalikes are bound to show up.
Some may even be listed online using the Pete’s Plug® name. But calling it a Pete’s Plug® doesn’t make it the real deal.

So how can you tell?

Look for the Pete’s Plug® name
Pay attention to the details
Know your cap colors
Know who you’re buying from

We’re breaking it all down in our next blog, “How to Spot a Fraud Pete’s Plug®,” so you can know what to look for before you buy.

And remember: If it isn’t stamped Pete’s Plug®… it isn’t a Pete’s Plug®.

Packed with care and ready to go.

During Manufacturing Month, we’re giving you a peek behind the scenes at all the little details and hardworking hands that go into every Pete’s Plug®.

Long before a Pete’s Plug® reaches a job site, it passes through the hands of the people who make, assemble, inspect, and prepare it with care.

During Manufacturing Month, we’re celebrating the team behind the product and the craftsmanship that has been part of Pete’s Plug® for generations.

We believe quality isn’t something you check at the end. It’s something you build into every step. That’s why every Pete’s Plug® passes through multiple sets of hands and undergoes our 12-point inspection process before leaving our facility.

Nearly 60 years later, we’re still proud to make products the way we believe they should be made: with people, purpose, and attention to the details.

Here’s to the people behind American manufacturing. 🇺🇸

Built in Texas. Trusted Everywhere.
