Value Collection 4CB1/2 Pipe End Cap 1/2 in 304 Ss Fnpt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4CB1/2 is a threaded pipe end cap designed to close off the open end of a half-inch pipe run. Constructed from 304 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance in wet, chemical-adjacent, and outdoor environments. The female NPT (FNPT) connection threads directly onto a male-threaded pipe end, creating a sealed termination rated to 150 psi. This type of fitting is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors to cap unused branch outlets, pressure-test piping systems, or permanently seal off decommissioned lines.

This end cap suits residential and light commercial plumbing, process piping, and HVAC-related fluid systems where a stainless steel cap is appropriate. The FNPT threading conforms to standard NPT taper dimensions, making it compatible with Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 pipe fittings of the same nominal size. It is sold individually and weighs approximately 0.154 pounds, making it easy to carry in a service bag alongside other fittings.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet and chemical-exposed environments
• FNPT (female national pipe taper) threaded connection for secure, leak-resistant sealing
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for standard plumbing and process piping applications
• Half-inch fitting size fits standard nominal half-inch pipe
• Compact and lightweight at 0.154 pounds for easy handling on the job

Compatibility

Designed as a standard FNPT threaded end cap for use with half-inch nominal male NPT-threaded pipe in plumbing, mechanical, and process piping systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable IPC or IFGC code requirements for the system type. Depressurize and isolate the piping section before fitting the cap. Apply thread sealant tape or compound to the male pipe threads before hand-tightening, then wrench-tighten to achieve a leak-free seal. Do not overtighten stainless steel fittings, as galling of threads can occur.
