Description
This polypropylene threaded end cap is used to securely seal the end of a male threaded fitting within a PP pipework system. It provides a simple and effective method of terminating pipe runs, isolating unused outlets or allowing for future system expansion without permanent modification.
Manufactured from high heat stabilised polypropylene block copolymer (PP-B), the end cap offers excellent chemical resistance, durability and impact strength, including reliable performance at sub-zero temperatures. The threaded connection allows easy installation and removal, making it ideal for systems where access and adaptability are required.
As with all threaded polypropylene fittings, this end cap is pressure rated to 6 bar and is intended for low to medium pressure applications where a demountable closure is preferred over fusion-welded solutions.
