Spears Schedule 40 PVC Socket Cap Fitting

The Spears Schedule 40 PVC Socket Cap Fitting is a solvent-weld (SOC) end cap molded from rigid Schedule 40 PVC, engineered to close off and seal the terminal end of a PVC pipe run. Available in trade sizes from 1-1/2" to 2", this cap uses a socket-style connection that solvent-welds directly onto Schedule 40 PVC pipe for a secure, leak-resistant joint. Lightweight yet durable, the Spears PVC cap resists corrosion, chemical attack, and everyday wear, making it a dependable choice for capping pipe runs in plumbing, irrigation, and general piping systems. Because it is molded to Schedule 40 socket dimensions, it installs quickly using standard PVC solvent cement, without the need for threading tools or metallic hardware.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: Manufactured in 1-1/2" and 2" sizes to match common Schedule 40 PVC pipe runs.
  • Durable Construction: Molded from rigid PVC for long-term resistance to corrosion, rust, and chemical exposure compared to metallic fittings.
  • Socket (SOC) Connection: Solvent-weld socket end provides a secure, leak-tight bond when welded to Schedule 40 PVC pipe.
  • Schedule 40 Sizing: Dimensioned to Schedule 40 PVC pipe specifications for a consistent, reliable fit at every socket joint.
  • End-of-Line Sealing: Closes off open pipe ends to keep debris, moisture, dirt, and contaminants out of the line during and after installation.
  • Lightweight Design: PVC construction is easy to handle, cut, and solvent-weld on the jobsite without special tools or heavy equipment.
  • Simple Installation: Bonds to Schedule 40 PVC pipe with standard PVC solvent cement for a fast, permanent, code-compliant seal.

Spears 447-020 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Spears Schedule 40 PVC cap solvent-weld onto standard Schedule 40 PVC pipe?
Yes. It is a socket (SOC) end cap molded to Schedule 40 socket dimensions, so it slips over the outside of Schedule 40 PVC pipe of the matching trade size and bonds with standard PVC solvent cement. No threading, no primer-free shortcuts, no metal hardware. Trade sizes offered are 1-1/2 inch and 2 inch.
2) What is the difference between a socket cap and a threaded PVC cap, and which should I use on a stub-out?
A socket cap is a permanent solvent-weld closure, which is what the Spears Schedule 40 cap is. Once cemented it is not coming off without cutting the pipe. Use it where the line is being capped for good, or on a dead branch you do not plan to reopen. If you need to remove the cap later (future tie-in, cleanout access, repeated testing), specify a threaded FPT cap over a male adapter instead, not this one.
3) Can I use this PVC cap to pressure test a water line before I close up the walls?
Capping a run for pressure testing is one of its listed uses. Keep in mind it is a solvent-weld fitting, so the test cap becomes part of the pipe. Plan on cutting it off and reaming the stub when you make the permanent connection, and leave yourself enough pipe length to do that.
4) Will a Schedule 40 PVC socket cap fit over CPVC pipe of the same nominal size?
Do not mix them. This is a PVC fitting made for PVC solvent cement and PVC pipe. CPVC systems need CPVC fittings and CPVC cement for a sound joint and for the higher temperature service CPVC is chosen for. Nominal size alone is not the deciding factor here.
5) Can I use this cap on DWV drain lines as well as pressure piping?
Both are covered. The description lists PVC pressure and non-pressure piping systems along with plumbing supply and drainage line terminations, so it works for capping a drainage stub as well as a pressure branch, provided the pipe it goes on is Schedule 40 PVC.
