What are Cap?

A forged cap closes the end of a socket weld or threaded pipe. Caps provide a pressure-tight termination on small-bore ASME B16.11 systems.

Selection guidance

Match NPS, end type and class to the line. Caps are used for permanent ends, hydrotest blanks and future tie-in points when tagged for removal. Related forms: 90° Elbow · 45° Elbow · Tee · Cross · all forged fittings.

Frequently asked questions

What are Cap?

Forged Cap are forged small-bore fittings used to join pipe, valves and instrumentation with socket weld or threaded ends. Size, class and material must match the piping class.

Which standards apply?

Dimensional: ASME B16.11 for most forged fittings; MSS SP-79 (reducer inserts), MSS SP-83 (unions) and MSS SP-95 (swage nipples / bull plugs) where applicable. Material follows the ASTM forging spec that matches the pipe (A182, A105, A350, A694, B564, etc.).

When should I choose Cap?

Choose Cap when the piping class and installation method call for this connection form. Confirm end type, NPS and Class 3000 / 6000 / 9000 on the purchase order.

What should be on the purchase order?

Material grade / ASTM class, end type (SW or threaded), fitting form, size, pressure class, quantity, destination, and documentation (EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2, PMI, NACE, TPI if required). Email sales@savoypipinginc.com.
