Product Description

The FERNCO fernco-qc101 is a 1-1/2 inch pipe cap designed to seal the open end of a drain, waste, or vent pipe. This fitting provides a quick, secure termination point during pressure testing, temporary service interruptions, or rough-in stages of a plumbing installation. The flexible coupling-style design allows for a snug fit over pipe ends without the need for solvent cement or special tools, making it a practical choice for plumbers working on both new construction and retrofit jobs.
