Asc Engineered Solutions D.BMCAP Pipe Cap 1/2 in Fnpt 150 Lb

Product Description

The ASC Engineered Solutions D.BMCAP is a 1/2 inch malleable iron pipe cap with a female NPT (FNPT) connection rated for 150 lb service. This fitting is used to close off the end of a threaded pipe run, creating a pressure-tight termination point. The black finish is standard for gas and industrial piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians install this type of cap when capping unused branch outlets, isolating sections of a piping system, or completing rough-in work pending final equipment connections.

This pipe cap is suited for residential and light commercial gas, air, and steam piping systems where a 1/2 inch threaded termination is required. The malleable iron construction handles moderate temperature and pressure conditions common in low-pressure gas distribution and general plumbing rough-in work. Domestic manufacturing supports traceability requirements on jobs where country of origin is specified by the contractor or code authority.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch FNPT thread provides a standard threaded connection to existing pipe runs
• 150 lb pressure rating suitable for low-pressure gas, air, and steam service
• Malleable iron construction offers durability and resistance to impact compared to cast iron
• Black finish is standard for gas piping applications and resists surface corrosion
• Domestically manufactured fitting supporting job-site traceability and specification compliance

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 1/2 inch FNPT threaded pipe systems rated at 150 lb service class, including residential and light commercial gas and air piping installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber, pipefitter, or qualified HVAC technician in accordance with applicable codes including the IFGC and IPC. Shut off and depressurize the piping system before threading on the cap. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape rated for the intended service medium before making up the joint. Do not overtighten malleable iron fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque.
