Moeller Marine 5/8 Inch Brass Baitwell Plug, Pair (053070-10)

The Moeller Marine 5/8 Inch Brass Baitwell Plug is a solid brass drain plug sized for 5/8 inch livewell and baitwell drain fittings, sold as a matched pair. Brass construction resists corrosion in both fresh and salt water environments, making it a durable choice for sealing baitwell, livewell, and other small marine drain openings when the boat is docked or in storage. Each plug is designed to seat securely in its fitting to prevent water loss from the baitwell while keeping bait alive and water contained.

Because it is sold in pairs, this part number covers boats with dual baitwell or livewell drains, or gives an owner a spare on hand for quick replacement. The compact brass design is simple to insert and remove by hand for regular baitwell maintenance.
