Galvanized Grooved End Cap w/ 1" Hole

ARGCO Model 005H grooved end cap with 1" hole is designed as a transition fitting for carbon steel piping systems, allowing connection from larger diameter grooved pipe to a 1" outlet. It provides a practical and cost-effective alternative to swaged nipples where significant size reduction is required.

Manufactured from ductile iron and finished with a hot dipped galvanized coating, this fitting is suitable for Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe and is rated for working pressures up to 300 psi (20 bar).

Key Features

• Grooved end cap with integrated 1" outlet for system transitions
• Provides a rigid connection that restricts axial and angular movement
• Alternative to more expensive swaged nipples
• Compatible with Schedule 10 and Schedule 40 carbon steel pipe
• Maximum working pressure up to 300 psi / 20 bar
• Ductile iron construction per ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12
• Hot dipped galvanized coating for corrosion resistance
• UL, ULC, and FM listed/approved

Typical Applications

Commonly used in fire protection systems, water distribution, and industrial piping where a reduced outlet is required from a larger grooved pipeline. Suitable for sprinkler system connections, drain points, gauge lines, and auxiliary piping.

Construction Details

Housing is manufactured from ductile iron conforming to ASTM A536 Grade 65-45-12 for strength and durability.

Designed for use with standard grooved piping systems to create a rigid end termination with a reduced outlet.

Exterior finish is hot dipped galvanized to provide enhanced corrosion resistance in demanding environments.

Important Notes

Working pressure ratings are based on standard carbon steel pipe with grooved ends in accordance with ARGCO specifications.

This fitting provides a rigid joint and is not intended to allow movement or deflection.
