Midland Industries 44478LF Rough Brass Pipe Cap 2 Inch

Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 44478LF is a 2-inch rough brass pipe cap designed to terminate or seal the end of a threaded pipe run. Manufactured in a lead-free brass alloy, this cap meets lead-free compliance requirements for potable water applications. It installs on a male-threaded pipe end and creates a pressure-tight closure in plumbing, HVAC hydronic, or industrial piping systems. Plumbers and pipefitters reach for this type of fitting during pressure testing, system capping, and permanent termination of unused branch lines.

This cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing installations where lead-free materials are required by code, including potable water supply lines and distribution systems. The rough brass finish is standard for in-wall or concealed applications where a polished appearance is not required. Its threaded connection makes installation straightforward with no soldering required.

Key Features

• 2-inch threaded pipe cap for terminating male-threaded pipe ends
• Lead-free brass construction for potable water compliance
• Rough brass finish suitable for concealed or in-wall installations
• Threaded connection — no soldering or special tooling required
• Compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use fitting for 2-inch male NPT-threaded pipe ends in residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters. Shut off the water supply and depressurize the line before installing or removing pipe caps. Apply thread sealant tape or pipe dope to the male threads before hand-tightening, then wrench-tighten to achieve a leak-free seal. Follow local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines for lead-free fitting requirements on potable water systems.
