Product Description

The MIDLAND INDUSTRIES 55820 is a Schedule 40 PVC slip cap designed to terminate or seal the end of a 4-inch female socket pipe connection. Constructed from PVC, it delivers reliable chemical resistance and durability in drain, waste, and vent applications. The white finish is standard for SCH 40 fittings used in residential and light commercial plumbing systems. This fitting is typically installed by licensed plumbers or experienced pipefitters working on pipe termination, pressure testing, or capping unused branch lines.
