Charlotte Pipe Foundry Pvc 08117 1400HA Sch 80 Fpt Cap 1 in

Product Description

The Charlotte Pipe Foundry Co. PVC 08117 1400HA is a 1-inch Schedule 80 PVC cap with female threaded (FPT) entry, manufactured in gray PVC for use in pressure-rated piping systems. Schedule 80 PVC wall thickness provides greater pressure tolerance than Schedule 40, making this cap suitable for industrial, commercial, and mechanical applications where system pressure or chemical exposure demands a heavier fitting. It is used to terminate a threaded pipe end cleanly and permanently or temporarily during system testing. Plumbers and pipefitters are the primary installers.

This cap fits 1-inch female threaded PVC pipe ends and is suited for use in water distribution, irrigation, industrial process lines, and chemical handling systems where PVC is an approved material. The gray coloring is standard for Schedule 80 PVC fittings, distinguishing them visually from white Schedule 40 components on the job. It is sold individually but available in package quantities of 15, making it practical for contractors stocking fittings for larger installs or service calls.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• Female threaded (FPT) design threads directly onto male-threaded pipe ends
• Gray color coding standard for Schedule 80 PVC fittings

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters in accordance with applicable IPC and local plumbing codes. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded cap. Use PTFE thread tape or an approved thread sealant on male threads before hand-tightening and then wrench-tightening the cap — do not overtighten PVC threads, as the material is susceptible to cracking under excessive torque. Confirm the fitting is rated for the intended fluid, temperature range, and system pressure before placing the line back in service.
