Asc Engineered Solutions 390030161 Grooved Painted Cap 2.5 in

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions 390030161 is a Gruvlok grooved painted cap designed to terminate the end of a grooved piping system. This 2.5-inch ductile iron cap installs at the dead end of a grooved pipe run, sealing the line and maintaining system integrity under pressure. It is a standard component in commercial and industrial piping assemblies, including fire protection, HVAC hydronic, and mechanical piping systems. Licensed pipefitters and mechanical contractors install this fitting as part of grooved coupling system installations where a clean, secure end termination is required.

This cap is suited for use in grooved piping applications where a rolled or cut-groove pipe end needs to be capped without welding or threading. At 2.5 inches, it fits standard pipe sizes common in mid-size commercial mechanical and fire suppression systems. The painted exterior finish provides a base layer of corrosion resistance for typical indoor and covered mechanical room environments.

Key Features

• Ductile iron construction for durability in mechanical and fire protection piping systems
• 2.5-inch grooved end connection compatible with standard grooved pipe coupling systems
• Painted exterior finish for basic corrosion protection
• Terminates grooved pipe runs without welding or threading
• Lightweight at 0.72 pounds for easy single-handed installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style grooved end cap for use in standard 2.5-inch grooved piping systems. Consult the Gruvlok product line documentation to confirm coupling and gasket compatibility for your specific system pressure and fluid type.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed pipefitters or qualified mechanical contractors following applicable mechanical and fire protection codes. Depressurize and drain the affected piping section completely before installing or removing any grooved fitting. Ensure the pipe end groove meets the dimensional requirements specified for the coupling system in use. Inspect the pipe end and gasket seating surface for damage before torquing the coupling housing.
