Anvil International Inc 8700132155 Black Pipe Cap 3/8 in

Product Description

The ANVIL INTERNATIONAL INC 8700132155 is a 3/8 inch black pipe cap used to close off the open end of a threaded pipe. It provides a secure, pressure-holding termination point on black steel pipe systems. The cap threads onto the male end of a pipe, sealing the line against leaks. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this fitting during new construction, system modifications, and pressure testing. The black finish is standard for gas distribution and hydronic heating piping where galvanized fittings are not required.

This pipe cap is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving black steel pipe. Common uses include capping unused branch outlets, isolating sections of a gas supply line during service work, and terminating dead-end runs on hydronic heating systems. It is sold in a package quantity of 100 units, making it practical for contractors stocking fittings for multiple jobs.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber or pipefitter should install this cap in accordance with applicable local mechanical and plumbing codes, including IFGC requirements for gas piping. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Use an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium on all threads before tightening. Do not overtighten, as this can crack fittings or damage threads.
