It is compatible with schedule 80 (thick wall) PVC pipes and fittings, and is suitable for a variety of applications including chemical processing, industrial plating, chilled water distribution, deionized water lines, chemical drainage, and wastewater treatment systems. PVC can be connected to other materials such as steel, copper, or cast iron using transition fittings.

This PVC cap fitting has a maximum operating temperature of 140 degrees F, meets ASTM International D1784 and D2467 standards for quality assurance, and is certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International (NSF) for potable water service. It is suitable for closing or terminating pipes used for conveying drinking water, waste water, chemicals, and other liquids in a range of industries.

Pipe fittings are essential components for connecting, terminating, controlling flow, and changing the direction of piping in various industries. When selecting pipe fittings, it is important to consider the application as this will determine the material type, shape, size, and required durability. Fittings are available in threaded or unthreaded options, and come in a variety of shapes, styles, sizes, and schedules (pipe wall thickness).
