Asc Engineered Solutions 8700132304 Black Iron Pipe Cap 1 in

Product Description

The ASC ENGINEERED SOLUTIONS 8700132304 is a 1-inch malleable black iron pipe cap designed to terminate the end of a threaded pipe run. Manufactured from malleable iron to ASTM A-197 chemical and physical property standards, this cap provides a durable, pressure-rated closure for low-pressure gas, water, and industrial piping systems. The threaded connection conforms to ANSI B-2.1 pipe thread standards, and overall dimensions comply with ANSI B-16.3. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install these fittings on new construction and retrofit jobs where a clean, code-compliant pipe termination is required.

This cap is suited for residential and light commercial piping applications including natural gas, steam, water, and air distribution systems. It is sold individually and is a standard stocking fitting for plumbing, mechanical, and industrial contractors. The black iron finish makes it appropriate for gas piping where galvanized fittings are not permitted by local code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with the International Plumbing Code or International Fuel Gas Code as applicable. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before installing or removing any fitting. Apply an approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before making up the joint. Do not over-tighten; use a pipe wrench to bring the fitting hand-tight plus the appropriate turns for the pipe size and material.
