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

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 4CB1/4 is a 1/4-inch threaded pipe end cap manufactured from 304 stainless steel. End caps of this type are used to close off the terminal end of a threaded pipe run, preventing flow, containing pressure, or capping unused branch lines. This fitting carries a 150 psi pressure rating and uses a female NPT (FNPT) connection, making it compatible with standard NPT-threaded pipe. At 0.06 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for a range of fluid system applications. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on water, process fluid, or low-pressure gas distribution systems.

This end cap is appropriate for residential and light commercial plumbing systems, as well as industrial fluid handling lines where a 1/4-inch NPT termination point is required. Typical applications include capping unused tee outlets, closing off test ports, and terminating branch lines during system modifications or new installations. The 304 stainless steel construction provides good corrosion resistance in wet or mildly corrosive environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable plumbing codes such as the IPC or local jurisdiction requirements. Shut off system pressure and drain the line before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male NPT threads before engaging the cap. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the fitting or the mating threads.
