Technical Features
- Malleable iron construction provides the structural durability required to withstand pressure cycling in both steam and water service applications.
- 150 PSI maximum working pressure rating meets the pressure demands of standard steam and water distribution systems without risk of fitting failure.
- Screwed (threaded) connection enables secure, tool-assisted installation into existing 1/4-inch threaded pipe ends, minimizing the risk of leaks at termination points.
- Square head design provides flat wrench-engagement surfaces for reliable torque application during installation or removal.
- Black finish consistent with standard black iron pipe system aesthetics and compatible with typical black pipe fitting assemblies.
- 1/4-inch pipe size sized for use on small-diameter branch lines or capped outlets within a larger piping network.
Applications
- Capping unused or temporary threaded pipe outlets on steam distribution systems rated to 150 PSI.
- Terminating open-ended water pipe lines in residential, commercial, or light industrial plumbing installations.
- Sealing 1/4-inch threaded ports on manifolds, valves, or pipe assemblies during system testing or permanent decommissioning of a branch line.
- Use in black iron pipe systems where fitting finish consistency is required.
