ABSTRACT:
A plug for ports having a flexible handle to facilitate the removal of the plug from a port. A flange is integrally attached to an end of the plug body and extends radially outwardly from the body. One or more openings are formed in the flange which form handles concentric to the body. The openings have ends spaced from each other providing lands that attach the handles to the flange. The openings are spaced inward from the outer edges of the flange and the handles provided can be swung toward each other and grasped by a hand to pull the plug out of a port.
