1-1/2" Polypropylene Threaded Pipe Cap — Model 62253 | Barr Plastics

The 1-1/2" Polypropylene Threaded Pipe Cap (Model 62253) from Barr Plastics is a durable, chemical-resistant cap designed to securely close the end of a threaded pipe. Made from polypropylene, it provides corrosion-free service and fast, tool-free installation for plumbing, irrigation, and industrial piping systems.

Key Features & Specifications

• Material: High-grade polypropylene for excellent chemical and corrosion resistance
• Size: Designed to fit 1-1/2" threaded pipe
• Design: Threaded cap for simple screw-on installation and reliable sealing
• Weight: Lightweight construction for easy handling and installation
• Temperature tolerance: Suitable for moderate temperature fluctuations (typical polypropylene continuous service up to ~180°F / 82°C — verify for your application)
• Chemical resistance: Resists acids, bases, and many solvents — ideal for chemical handling and wastewater systems
• Maintenance: Non-corroding and non-reactive for long service life and low maintenance

Benefits & Typical Applications

This polypropylene threaded cap stops leaks and protects open pipe ends during downtime, maintenance, or when rerouting lines. Its chemical and corrosion resistance extends service life compared with metal caps, reducing replacement costs and downtime. The lightweight, threaded design speeds installation and removal, saving labor on site.

Common uses include:

• Plumbing systems — temporary or permanent pipe termination
• Irrigation — capping branch lines and seasonal shutdowns
• Chemical processing — safe termination on corrosive fluid lines
• Wastewater treatment — reliable sealing in corrosive environments
• Food and pharmaceutical facilities — non-reactive material options for many non-sterile drains and vents

Installation & Operational Notes

• Ensure thread type and size match the mating pipe before installation.
• Clean threads of debris and inspect for damage prior to fitting.
• For pressure-critical systems, use the appropriate thread sealant or tape and confirm compatibility with your process fluids and pressures.
• Verify temperature and pressure limits of polypropylene for your specific application; contact Barr Plastics if you need exact ratings.
