Value Collection 848-015 Pvc End Cap 1-1/2 in Sch 80 Fipt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 848-015 is a Schedule 80 PVC end cap with a 1-1/2 inch female iron pipe thread (FIPT) connection. End caps are used to terminate open pipe ends in pressurized or non-pressurized systems, preventing flow and sealing the line. The Schedule 80 wall thickness provides greater pressure resistance compared to Schedule 40, making it suitable for demanding plumbing, irrigation, and industrial piping applications. The FIPT connection threads onto a male-threaded pipe end for a secure, leak-resistant seal. Plumbers and pipefitters install this fitting as part of standard PVC piping systems where a threaded termination is required.

This end cap is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing, irrigation, industrial process lines, and chemical handling systems where PVC is an approved material. The threaded connection allows for removal and reinstallation without cutting into the line, which is useful in systems that may require future access. The 1-1/2 inch size fits standard Schedule 80 PVC pipe of the same nominal diameter. Installation is performed by licensed plumbers or qualified pipefitters following applicable plumbing codes.

Key Features

• Schedule 80 wall thickness for higher pressure ratings compared to Schedule 40
• FIPT (female iron pipe thread) connection threads onto standard male-threaded PVC pipe ends
• 1-1/2 inch nominal fitting size for common pipe sizes in plumbing and irrigation
• PVC construction resists corrosion, moisture, and many common chemicals

Compatibility

Designed as a standard threaded end cap for 1-1/2 inch Schedule 80 PVC piping systems using male NPT pipe thread terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with the applicable International Plumbing Code (IPC) or local equivalent. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before installing or removing any threaded fittings. Apply thread sealant tape or approved pipe thread compound to the male threads before threading on the cap. Do not use excessive force when tightening threaded PVC fittings, as overtightening can crack the fitting body.
