Nomaco HDPECAP112 Hdpe Socket Cap 1-1/2 Inches

Product Description

The NOMACO HDPECAP112 is a 1-1/2 inch HDPE socket cap used to terminate or seal the end of a pipe in piping systems. Fabricated from high-density polyethylene, this fitting provides a durable, corrosion-resistant closure for pipe ends where flow is stopped or a line is capped off. Socket-style fittings like this are joined by heat fusion, creating a leak-free, monolithic connection. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters install this cap during new construction, repair, or system modification work across water, irrigation, and industrial fluid-handling applications.

This socket cap is suited for residential and commercial piping applications where HDPE pipe is specified. Typical install scenarios include potable water distribution, reclaimed water systems, irrigation mains, and industrial process lines. The 1-1/2 inch size fits standard SDR-rated HDPE pipe of the same nominal diameter. It is also used to dead-end unused branch lines during phased construction or system expansion projects.

Key Features

• High-density polyethylene construction resists corrosion, chemicals, and UV degradation
• Socket-style end for butt or socket fusion joining to matching HDPE pipe
• 1-1/2 inch nominal size fits standard HDPE pipe of the same diameter
• Leak-free termination point for pipe ends in pressurized or non-pressurized systems
• Lightweight design simplifies handling and installation in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 1-1/2 inch nominal HDPE piping systems using socket fusion end connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters trained in HDPE fusion joining techniques. Depressurize and drain the line completely before cutting into any live system. Socket fusion requires a properly calibrated fusion tool heated to the manufacturer-specified temperature for the pipe size and SDR rating. Follow applicable plumbing codes, including IPC guidelines, for fitting installation and pressure testing requirements.
