Anderson Metals 730081-04 Compression Tube End Cap

Product Description

The ANDERSON METALS 730081-04 is a compression tube end cap designed to seal the open end of a compression-style tubing line. Machined from lead free brass, this end cap threads onto a 7/16-24 straight thread connection and provides a pressure-tight termination rated to 3000 psi maximum working pressure. Its compact form factor makes it suitable for use in tight spaces where a clean, permanent or semi-permanent tube seal is required. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and industrial pipefitters install this type of fitting when capping unused ports or decommissioning branch lines without cutting and crimping.

This end cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, refrigeration, and fluid system applications where a compression-style seal is specified. The lead free brass construction meets requirements for potable water systems where low lead content is mandated. It is commonly installed on copper or compatible tubing during system modifications, staged buildouts, or temporary isolation of branch runs.

Key Features

• Lead free brass construction suitable for potable water applications
• Compression cap end connection for tool-assisted, pressure-tight seal
• 7/16-24 straight thread size for precise fitment
• Rated to 3000 psi maximum working pressure
• Compact and lightweight at 0.02 pounds for easy handling in confined spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation compression end cap for tubing systems using 7/16-24 compression-style connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off system pressure and bleed the line before removing or installing any compression fitting. Use appropriate compression fitting tools to seat the ferrule evenly — do not overtighten by hand alone. Work must comply with applicable local plumbing codes and IAPMO or IPC standards where potable water systems are involved.
