Bmi Usa 20509 Pipe Cap 2 Inch Extra Heavy Malleable Iron

Product Description

The BMI USA 20509 is a 2-inch extra heavy malleable iron pipe cap with a black finish, designed for use in piping systems where a threaded end closure is required. Pipe caps thread onto the male end of a pipe to seal the line, making them a standard fitting in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping work. The extra heavy wall construction provides added strength and durability in high-demand applications. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and HVAC technicians working on threaded iron pipe systems.

This cap is suited for residential and commercial piping installations where a threaded closure is needed on a 2-inch pipe end. Common applications include capping unused branch outlets, temporarily or permanently sealing gas lines, and closing off supply or return runs during rough-in or system modifications. The extra heavy designation indicates a heavier wall thickness than standard or heavy classifications, making it appropriate for higher-pressure or more demanding service conditions.

Key Features

• Extra heavy malleable iron construction for added wall strength and durability
• Black finish suitable for gas and plumbing piping applications
• 2-inch threaded fitting for use on male-threaded pipe ends
• Weighs 1.74 pounds, consistent with extra heavy classification for this pipe size

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 2-inch threaded iron pipe systems in plumbing, gas, and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable plumbing and gas codes, including IPC and IFGC requirements. Shut off and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply approved thread sealant or PTFE tape to the pipe threads before seating the cap. Do not overtighten, as excessive force can crack malleable iron fittings.
