Elkhart Products DWVTESTCAP-112 Copper Dwv Test Cap

Product Description

The ELKHART PRODUCTS DWVTESTCAP-112 is a wrot copper DWV test cap sized at 1-1/2 inches, designed to temporarily seal drain, waste, and vent piping during pressure testing procedures. Constructed from wrot copper using a solder-joint connection, this cap is installed by plumbers and pipefitters to isolate sections of DWV systems so they can be tested for leaks before final inspection. At 0.011 pounds, it is a lightweight fitting that seats cleanly over 1-1/2-inch copper DWV pipe. The solder connection provides a secure, temporary seal that is removed after the test is complete.

This test cap is used in residential and light commercial plumbing installations wherever copper DWV piping is present. It is most commonly applied during rough-in inspections, when code requires a pressure or air test of the drain, waste, and vent system before the piping is concealed. Plumbers fit this cap at the open end of a DWV run to hold test pressure for the duration of the inspection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the International Plumbing Code (IPC) and local amendments. Shut off the water supply and ensure the piping is dry and clean before soldering. Use appropriate flux and lead-free solder per applicable code requirements.
