Asc Engineered Solutions 2.NMCAP Pipe Cap 2in Fnpt 150lb

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 2.NMCAP is a straight pipe cap rated for 150 lb service, threaded with a 2-inch female NPT (FNPT) connection. It is constructed from malleable iron with a galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. This fitting is used to terminate open pipe ends in pressurized piping systems, blocking flow or sealing unused branch outlets. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors install this type of fitting in gas, water, steam, and compressed-air distribution systems. The domestic manufacture and malleable iron construction meet the demands of commercial and industrial piping applications.

This pipe cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, gas distribution, and mechanical piping systems where a 2-inch threaded termination is required. It is commonly installed during system commissioning to cap test ports, dead-end branches, or future-connection stubs. The FNPT thread engages a standard male NPT pipe end, making it compatible with standard Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 threaded pipe in 2-inch nominal size.

Key Features

• 2-inch FNPT straight pipe cap for terminating open threaded pipe ends
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for steam, gas, water, and air service
• Malleable iron construction provides strength and impact resistance
• Galvanized finish resists corrosion in exposed or damp environments
• Domestically manufactured to support projects with domestic-content requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 2-inch nominal threaded pipe systems using NPT connections rated at 150 lb class.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable codes such as the IPC or IFGC. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before installing or removing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before engagement. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
