Midland Industries 28076T10/32 Barstock Pipe Cap

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 28076T10/32 is a barstock brass pipe cap with a 1/4-inch female NPTF connection, designed to terminate or seal the end of a threaded pipe line. Machined from solid brass bar stock, the fitting measures 0.6 inches in length with a 0.68-inch hex for wrench engagement. It is rated to 1200 psi and handles temperatures from -65 to 250 degrees F. The 1/4-18 thread conforms to NPTF standards for a pressure-tight, dryseal fit without requiring additional sealant under normal conditions. This cap includes 10-32 UNF holes, adding versatility for instrumentation or porting applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers.

This pipe cap is suited for residential and commercial plumbing, pneumatic lines, hydraulic systems, and general industrial piping where a durable brass end cap is required. Its compatibility with a broad range of pipe materials makes it a practical choice across a variety of system types, including compressed air, fluid transfer, and instrumentation manifolds where a sealed termination point is needed.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Depressurize and isolate the line before installing or removing any fitting. Thread engagement should be made hand-tight first, then wrench-tightened using the hex flats to avoid cross-threading or overtightening the brass body. Follow applicable IPC or local plumbing code requirements for pressure testing after installation.
