Technical Information
This 3/4″ PVC Schedule 40 End Cap is designed to terminate pipe runs in plumbing and fluid handling systems. The socket end provides a secure connection through solvent welding. The pressure rating decreases as temperature increases:
- 280 PSI @ 73°F
- 210 PSI @ 90°F
- 140 PSI @ 110°F
- 90 PSI @ 140°F
Key features include:
- One-piece solid construction for maximum reliability
- Flat end design for even pressure distribution
- Deep socket for optimal pipe engagement
- Rounded interior edges minimize flow turbulence when used in directional changes
- Thick walls provide excellent durability and pressure resistance
Applications
- Terminating pipe runs
- Pressure testing systems
- Future expansion points
- Temporary system closure
- Water distribution systems
- Irrigation systems
- Pool and spa plumbing
- Industrial fluid handling
- Chemical processing lines
Installation Guidelines
- For socket connection, use appropriate PVC primer and cement
- Ensure pipe end is clean, dry, and cut square
- Apply primer and cement according to manufacturer’s instructions
- Insert pipe to full depth of socket
- Allow adequate curing time before pressure testing (24 hours recommended)
- For temporary installations, consider easy-access positioning
- Support pipe properly near termination points
- For buried applications, properly compact backfill material
