Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 150# stainless steel threaded cap used for?
It is used to close the end of a compatible male threaded pipe, nipple, fitting, or process piping connection.
What stainless steel grades are available?
SCI Heavy Pattern Class 150 threaded fittings are available in 304 and 316 stainless steel configurations.
What type of connection does this cap use?
The cap uses a female NPT threaded connection for installation onto compatible male threaded piping components.
Is 150# the same as a 150 PSI working pressure?
No. Class 150 identifies the fitting pressure class and should not be interpreted as a universal 150 PSI working-pressure rating for every application.
Can the cap be removed after installation?
Yes. The threaded design provides a removable closure when installed using appropriate piping and thread-sealing practices.
Should thread sealant be used?
Use a thread sealant appropriate for the piping materials, process media, temperature, and service conditions.
Why choose stainless steel for a threaded cap?
Stainless steel provides durability and corrosion resistance for many compatible industrial, commercial, and process piping applications.
What should I confirm before ordering?
Confirm pipe size, stainless steel grade, thread requirements, process media, and applicable system pressure and temperature conditions.
Important Ordering & Installation Notes
- Confirm the required pipe size.
- Select the correct stainless grade.
- Verify service compatibility.
- Use suitable thread sealant.
- Avoid excessive thread torque.
