Nomaco PESFCAP112 Socket Fusion Cap 1-1/2 Inch Ips

Product Description

The NOMACO PESFCAP112 is a 1-1/2 inch IPS socket fusion cap designed to terminate and seal polyethylene piping systems. Socket fusion caps are used to permanently close the end of a pipe run, preventing flow and maintaining system integrity. This fitting is joined by heat fusion, creating a homogeneous bond that matches the strength of the surrounding pipe wall. It is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on PE piping systems in water, irrigation, and industrial fluid-handling applications.

This cap is sized for 1-1/2 inch IPS (Iron Pipe Size) pipe, a standard dimension found across residential and light commercial polyethylene piping installations. Socket fusion fittings are a common choice where a leak-free, permanent termination is required and disassembly is not anticipated. Typical install scenarios include capping unused branch outlets, sealing dead-end service lines, and closing off sections during pressure testing or phased construction.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch IPS socket fusion end for permanent, heat-fused pipe termination
• Designed for polyethylene piping systems requiring a sealed dead-end closure
• Socket fusion joint creates a continuous, monolithic bond with no threading or mechanical fasteners
• Suitable for water, irrigation, and industrial fluid-handling pipe runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style socket fusion fitting for 1-1/2 inch IPS polyethylene pipe systems.

Installation Notes

Socket fusion caps are installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters using approved socket fusion tools including a fusion iron, depth gauge, and chamfer tool. The pipe end and fitting socket must be clean, dry, and free of debris before heating. De-energize or isolate the piping system and depressurize fully before performing any fusion work. Follow the pipe and fitting manufacturer heating time and cooling time guidelines for the pipe diameter being fused.
