I have looked and looked and have not found any information.

Please enlighten us with this process. I have a pile of 3/8" aluminum pipe thread plugs

TIA

Had a couple minutes and was able to pull 4 plugs with a 1/8" drill, #8 sheet metal screw and a slide hammer. A couple did not grab and will go back later with a #10 or #12 screw. Looks like a straightforward operation to clean everything and fit new machined plugs. I am not sure what sealant to use, but it will come to light
