ASC Engineered Solutions 318901386 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will this ASC 1-1/2 inch black malleable iron cap thread onto standard 1-1/2 inch black steel pipe?
Yes. The cap is a 1-1/2 inch female pipe thread (FPT) fitting cut to ASME B1.20.1, which is standard NPT taper thread, so it screws directly onto the male end of 1-1/2 inch black steel or malleable iron pipe. Use pipe dope or PTFE tape on the male threads as usual.
2) Is this 1-1/2 inch cap UL listed and FM approved for fire sprinkler work?
Yes, the 1-1/2 inch extra heavy black malleable iron cap carries UL/FM recognition, which is what a sprinkler contractor needs when capping a test connection, an inspector's outlet, or a spare branch on a fire protection line.
3) Can I use a black malleable iron cap on a domestic water line?
No. Black malleable iron is for non-potable service, typically gas, air, fire protection, and industrial or steam lines. For potable water you want a galvanized or brass fitting instead, since the black finish on this cap has no corrosion protection against wet potable service.
4) Do I need a cap or a plug to close off a 1-1/2 inch pipe end?
It depends which end you have. This ASC part is a cap with female NPT threads, so it goes over the male threaded end of a pipe or nipple. If you are closing a female opening such as a tee branch or a coupling, you need a plug with male threads instead.
5) What is the part number and weight for the ASC 1-1/2 inch extra heavy black cap?
Order it as ASC Engineered Solutions part 318901386. Each cap weighs 1.18 lbs, useful when you are figuring shipping on a bulk order of caps for a shutdown or a building-wide capping job.
