Value Collection MDB300 40-5 Threaded End Cap 1-1/2 in Black

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MDB300 40-5 is a malleable iron threaded end cap designed to close off the end of a pipe in pressurized fluid or gas systems. Finished in black, this fitting conforms to Class 150 standards and carries ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 and ASME B16.3 certifications, making it suitable for use in Schedule 40 threaded piping assemblies. With a pressure rating of 300 psi, it delivers reliable service in both liquid and gas applications. This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors in commercial and industrial piping systems.

This end cap is appropriate for use in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC hydronic piping, and general industrial piping where a threaded pipe terminus needs to be sealed. Its 1-1/2 inch threaded connection makes it a standard choice for Schedule 40 black iron pipe systems carrying steam, water, air, or natural gas within rated pressure limits. The black finish is conventional for gas-line and general-purpose iron pipe installations.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by licensed plumbers or pipefitters working on threaded iron pipe systems. Shut off and depressurize the piping system completely before removing or installing any threaded fitting. Apply an appropriate pipe thread sealant or PTFE tape to the male threads before assembly, and tighten with a pipe wrench to achieve a proper seal without over-torquing the fitting. Installations involving natural gas lines must comply with applicable local codes and IFGC requirements.
