Steel Worlds Industries

Key Features:

Sealing: End caps are designed to securely seal the end of pipes, providing a tight closure that prevents leakage or contamination of the piping system.
Variety of Materials: Available in materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, copper, brass, PVC, CPVC, and more, depending on the application and environment.
Pressure and Temperature Ratings: Capable of handling varying levels of pressure and temperature based on the material used. Metal caps generally handle higher pressure and temperature compared to plastic or composite caps.

Common Types:

Butt-Weld End Cap: Designed for permanent closure, often welded onto the pipe. It provides a strong, seamless finish and is used in high-pressure applications.
Threaded End Cap: Screws onto the threaded pipe end, typically used in systems where the cap may need to be removed for future expansion or maintenance.
Socket-Weld End Cap: Fitted over the pipe end and welded into place, providing a solid and secure seal for permanent applications.

Standards and Specifications:

ANSI/ASME B16.9: Standards for factory-made wrought steel buttwelding fittings, including end caps.
ASTM A234: Specification for carbon and alloy steel pipe fittings for high-temperature service.
ISO 9001: Ensures quality in manufacturing end caps, following globally recognized standards.
