Charlotte Pipe Pvc 00131 1000HA 3 Inch Pvc Dwv Test Cap

Product Description

The CHARLOTTE PIPE FOUNDRY CO. PVC 00131 1000HA is a white PVC test cap designed for use with 3-inch DWV (drain, waste, and vent) pipe systems. This cap fits into Schedule 40 PVC pipe and serves as a temporary seal during construction or system testing phases. It blocks the pipe opening to prevent debris, dirt, and foreign material from entering the plumbing system before it goes into service. Plumbers and pipefitters rely on this type of fitting during rough-in and pressure testing stages on residential and light commercial projects. The cap weighs 1.65 pounds and is sold individually.

This test cap is suited for use in DWV systems where temporary closure of a 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC pipe is required. It is commonly installed during new construction, remodeling, and rough-in plumbing work to protect open pipe ends from job-site contamination. The cap is also useful during inspection and pressure testing procedures where a watertight or airtight temporary seal is needed at a pipe terminus.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter. Shut off water supply and depressurize the system before working on any active plumbing lines. This cap is intended as a temporary fitting for construction and testing phases and should be removed or replaced with a permanent fitting before the system is placed into full service. Follow all applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines when pressure testing DWV systems.
