Value Collection 13079G Malleable Iron End Cap 1/8 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 13079G is a threaded malleable iron end cap with a galvanized finish, sized at 1/8 inch. End caps of this type are used to terminate open pipe ends in threaded piping assemblies, preventing flow through unused outlets and protecting internal threads from debris and corrosion. This fitting carries a Class 150 rating and a liquid and gas pressure rating of 300 psi, making it suitable for low-pressure piping systems handling air, water, or gas. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters typically install these fittings during new construction, system modification, or maintenance work on threaded pipe systems.

This end cap is used in residential and light commercial piping applications where 1/8 inch threaded fittings are required. Common install scenarios include capping branch outlets on gas distribution manifolds, water supply lines, and compressed air systems. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in exposed or moderately humid environments. Each package contains 5 pieces, making this fitting suitable for jobs requiring multiple terminations in a single service call or installation run.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local codes, including the International Plumbing Code (IPC) or International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) where relevant. Shut off and depressurize the system completely before removing or installing any threaded fittings. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before tightening to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten, as malleable iron fittings can crack under excessive torque.
