This cap is cleaned and bagged at the factory, meaning the fitting arrives free of oils, debris, and contaminants that could compromise a brazed or soldered joint. The cleaned-and-bagged designation is particularly important in ACR (air conditioning and refrigeration) applications where system cleanliness directly affects equipment longevity and efficiency. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, and refrigeration mechanics routinely use end caps like this to cap off unused ports, terminate branch lines, or pressure-test completed assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing and HVAC installations where a 1\/4-inch copper tube end must be permanently sealed. Common applications include capping refrigerant line stubs, sealing test ports after pressure checks, and terminating water supply lines. The cleaned-and-bagged preparation makes it ready for use in refrigeration and ACR circuits without additional flushing or degreasing before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCleaned and bagged from the factory for use in ACR and refrigeration systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4-inch size fits standard 1\/4-inch OD copper tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCopper construction provides reliable soldered or brazed joint integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eContamination-free packaging preserves interior cleanliness until installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSuitable for permanent line termination and pressure-test applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-stock fitting for 1\/4-inch copper tubing used in plumbing, HVAC, and ACR refrigeration systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed plumbers or HVAC-R technicians following applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local jurisdictional requirements. Recover any refrigerant and depressurize the system before cutting or capping copper lines. Use appropriate flux and silver-bearing or lead-free solder as required by the system type and local code. Avoid contaminating the cleaned interior of the cap by handling only the exterior prior to soldering or brazing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreparation\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cleaned and Bagged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 039923306159\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ELKHART PRODUCTS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9172550CB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ELKHART PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383598842162,"sku":"9172550CB","price":37.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312673669.jpg?v=1782601730","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/elkhart-products-9172550cb-copper-cap-1-4-inch","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
