Georg Fischer 847-030 Pvc Cap 3 Inch Schedule 80

Product Description

The GEORG FISCHER 847-030 is a 3-inch Schedule 80 PVC pipe cap used to terminate the end of a pipe run in pressurized or drain plumbing systems. Manufactured from rigid PVC, this cap provides a durable, solvent-weld closure rated for the higher wall thickness and pressure ratings associated with Schedule 80 fittings. At 0.93 pounds and 3.06 inches in length, it is a compact, single-use closure fitting suited for permanent installations. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting wherever a pipe end must be sealed in industrial, commercial, or heavy-duty residential piping systems.

This Schedule 80 PVC cap is used in systems where standard Schedule 40 fittings are not rated for the operating pressure or chemical exposure involved. Typical applications include pressurized water supply lines, chemical handling systems, irrigation mainlines, and industrial process piping. The Schedule 80 wall thickness makes it a preferred choice in commercial mechanical rooms and industrial facilities where pipe fittings see elevated stress or frequent handling.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 PVC construction provides greater wall thickness and pressure rating than Schedule 40
• 3-inch nominal pipe size fits standard 3-inch PVC pipe for a solvent-weld connection
• Rigid PVC material offers resistance to corrosion and many common chemicals
• Compact form factor at 3.06 inches in length and 0.93 pounds
• Suitable for permanent pipe termination in pressurized and non-pressurized systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitting for 3-inch Schedule 80 PVC pipe systems requiring a solvent-weld end cap closure.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter following applicable IPC and local plumbing code requirements. The mating pipe end must be cut square, deburred, and cleaned before applying PVC solvent cement to both the pipe end and the fitting socket. The system must be depressurized and drained before removing any existing fitting or capping an active line. Allow full solvent-weld cure time per the cement manufacturer instructions before restoring system pressure.
