Technical Information

This 1″ 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

Compliance Information

• NSF/ANSI 61 certified for potable water applications
• Lead-free compliant per Safe Drinking Water Act
• Manufactured in compliance with ASTM D1785 and D2466 standards
