{{#category_index:H|hole plug}} A device used to plug a shothole after shooting. Usually the plug is pushed far enough into the hole to prevent it is being dislodged and earth is shoveled over it level with the surrounding ground. Also called bridge plug. Hole plugs are also used to close shotholes temporarily between the drilling/loading operation and the detonation of the charge.
