Product Details
The Merit 316 SS Schedule 40 Cap 1-1/4 Butt-Weld Female is designed for pipe connections using the preferred butt welding method, which requires fittings to have the same wall thickness and diameter as the pipe they connect. Both the pipe and fitting are beveled to allow the ends to butt together, forming a groove that holds the weld filler. This design offers advantages such as lower cost, reduced maintenance, and greater strength compared to threaded joints. The cap is made from 316 stainless steel and conforms to Schedule 40 specifications, suitable for a 1-1/4 inch pipe size, ensuring durability and compliance with industry standards. The product includes the butt-weld cap itself, ready for installation and welding. It comes with warranty terms that cover manufacturing defects and quality assurance.
