Manufactured domestically from malleable iron with a black coating, this cap provides a durable, corrosion-resistant closure for pipe runs in gas, steam, and industrial piping applications. At 3.32 pounds, the fitting reflects the heavier wall construction of the extra-heavy (XH) pressure class. Installation requires only a pipe wrench and compatible threaded male pipe end. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers for this class of fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cap is suited for use in commercial and industrial piping systems where standard-weight fittings are insufficient for the operating pressure or mechanical load. The extra-heavy designation makes it appropriate for steam distribution, high-pressure gas lines, and similar demanding service environments. It is also used in residential and light commercial gas piping applications where code or system design specifies XH-class fittings. The black coating is standard for gas service identification in accordance with common piping conventions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra-heavy (XH) pressure class for demanding service conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for strength and resistance to mechanical stress\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack coating suitable for gas service identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2.5-inch threaded fitting size for standard NPT pipe ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDomestically manufactured\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 2.5-inch threaded pipe systems requiring an extra-heavy malleable iron cap closure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable codes such as the IFGC or ASME B16.3. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system completely before installing or replacing any threaded cap. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the service medium before threading the cap onto the pipe end. Do not over-torque, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePressure Class\u003c\/strong\u003e: Extra Heavy (XH)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.32 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Domestic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASC Engineered Solutions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 318901410\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233356480818,"sku":"0318901410","price":495.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307630682.jpg?v=1780098275","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/asc-engineered-solutions-318901410-malleable-iron-pipe-cap","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
