Value Collection 6CB1/8 Pipe End Cap 1/8 in 316 Ss Fnpt 150 Psi

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 6CB1/8 is a 1/8 inch female NPT threaded pipe end cap machined from 316 stainless steel. End caps in this configuration are used to seal the terminal end of a threaded pipe run, blocking flow and pressure from escaping the system. The 316 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet, chemical, or marine environments. Rated to 150 psi, this cap is suited for low-to-medium pressure piping systems. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians install this type of fitting when capping off unused branch lines, test ports, or decommissioned service points.

This end cap is designed for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, process piping, and instrumentation lines where a 1/8 inch FNPT threaded termination is required. The 316 stainless steel grade is commonly specified in applications involving mild corrosives, saltwater exposure, food-grade environments, or anywhere 304 stainless does not provide adequate resistance. The threaded FNPT connection allows installation with standard NPT-compatible pipe or fittings without special tooling.

Key Features

• 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance compared to 304 grade
• 1/8 inch FNPT threaded connection for compatibility with standard NPT pipe and fittings
• 150 psi pressure rating suitable for low-to-medium pressure piping systems
• Compact end cap profile for use in tight or congested pipe runs
• Threaded design allows hand-start installation followed by wrench tightening

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/8 inch NPT threaded pipe systems requiring a stainless steel end cap termination.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following applicable IPC or facility piping codes. Shut off system pressure and depressurize the line before installing or removing any threaded fitting. Apply a compatible thread sealant tape or compound to the male NPT threads before engaging the cap. Hand-start the fitting to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with a wrench to achieve a proper seal without over-stressing the fitting.
