Dura Plastic PVC40CAPFIP1 Pvc Sch 40 Cap Fipt 1 in

Product Description

The DURA PLASTIC PVC40CAPFIP1 is a 1-inch female iron pipe thread (FIPT) cap fitting manufactured to Schedule 40 pressure specifications in PVC. This end cap threads onto a male-threaded pipe end to terminate a run, cap off an unused port, or isolate a branch during pressure testing. The FIPT connection accepts standard NPT male threads, making it compatible with threaded PVC, CPVC, and metal piping in the same pipe size. Plumbers and irrigation technicians install this fitting in both new construction and service work where a clean, threaded termination is required.

This cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation systems, pool and spa plumbing, and industrial process lines where PVC Schedule 40 pressure fittings are specified. It is commonly used to cap branch tees, close ball valve ports, or seal lines during system modifications. The FIPT design allows the cap to be hand-tightened and then wrench-snugged with thread sealant tape or compound for a leak-free seal.

Key Features

• FIPT (female iron pipe thread) connection accepts standard NPT male-threaded pipe ends
• Schedule 40 PVC construction rated for pressure service in water and irrigation applications
• 1-inch pipe size for terminating or capping standard 1-inch threaded lines
• Lightweight and corrosion-resistant PVC material suited for wet and chemical environments
• Reusable design allows removal and reinstallation during system service or modification

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for Schedule 40 PVC threaded piping systems using 1-inch NPT connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified irrigation technicians. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply thread sealant tape or approved pipe thread compound to the male threads before threading on the cap. Tighten to snug plus one to two wrench turns — do not overtighten PVC threads, as this can crack the fitting.
