Larsen Supply Co. 32-2951 Ss Pipe Cap 1/8 Inch Type 304

Product Description

The LARSEN SUPPLY CO., INC. 32-2951 is a 1/8 inch stainless steel pipe cap designed to terminate or close off the end of a threaded pipe run. Constructed from Type 304 stainless steel and rated at 150 LB, this cap is suited for use in plumbing, HVAC, and light industrial piping systems where corrosion resistance and pressure integrity are required. Female pipe threads allow straightforward installation onto male-threaded pipe ends. The part is certified lead free, making it compliant with lead-free plumbing requirements for potable water applications. Sold individually and packaged in a carded clam shell.

This pipe cap is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications involving 1/8 inch NPT threaded pipe. Typical uses include capping unused branch outlets, closing off test ports, and terminating dead-end runs in water supply, gas distribution, or compressed air systems. The Type 304 stainless steel construction makes it a reliable choice in environments where carbon steel or brass fittings would be prone to corrosion.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter. Shut off and depressurize the pipe system before threading on the cap. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads per IPC or IFGC requirements before hand-tightening and then wrench-tightening. Do not overtighten, as stainless steel threads can gall if excessive torque is applied.
