A Stainless Steel Threaded Cap is an end of stainless pipes in the piping system as one of the plumbing fittings to stop the flow rate in the pipeline.
Types of fittings:
Generally, a pipeline stop can be machined as welding, and
Variable types of threaded fittings connections:
- NPT: American National Standard Taper Pipe Thread
- NPS: American National Standard Straight Pipe Thread
- BSPF: British Standard Pipe Fitting
- ACME: Acme thread has a flat apex and valley, and a wider tooth shape than an NPT thread
Besides, according to the line pressure rating divided threaded fittings into:
- ANSI B16.34 class fittings; #150, class #300, class #400, class #600, class #900, class #1500, and class #2500.
- API Spec 6A fittings; prescribes the following seven pressure classes: 2000, 3000, 5000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, and 30,000. API 2000, 3000, and 5000.
- ASME class fittings: class 3000, class 6000 ….
However, Forged threaded caps- ASTM A182 / A182M is the high-pressure fittings, different from Class 150 Stainless Steel cap, and they are commonly used for transporting hazardous or corrosive materials.
As a part of the mentioning that there is a difference between a Stainless Steel threaded cap and a Hex threaded plug in the form of its connection. The threaded cap – has a female connection. While the Hexagon threaded plug has a male threaded connection.
Pipe fittings orders should consider:
- The standards of manufacturing standards; such as ISO standards, ASTM standards e.g. A182, DIN Standards, ASMI standards, ASME (e.g. SA182, B16.11 CSA, ANSI standards, BS Standards, JISC Standards.
- Stainless steel grade; the manufacturers and suppliers specify the grades of fittings as per order. for instances EN standards ( 1.4301, 1.4948, 1.4401, 1.4436, 1.4404, 1.4435, 1.4541, etc.) or ASTM standards ( 304, 304L, 316 Ti, 321, 904 L, etc.)
- Connection specifications such as thread connection type (NPT, BSP, BSPT, DIN2999), or weld type.
- Line pressure to specify the wall thickness of fittings by schedule or class.
- Line outer diameter size – In plumbing pipe size is referred to as nominal pipe size – NPS, or (Nominal Pipe Size). The metric equivalent is called DN or (diametre nominal)
