View the thousands of stainless steel pipe and tubing products we offer. This Reference Catalog identifies forged stainless steel caps and other pipe fittings through specification charts and illustrations. Some dimensions in the Reference Catalog differ from the charts on this page.Additional Info
3000# stainless steel forged caps are pipe fittings that cover the end of a pipe. It can be threaded where one can thread the fitting onto the end of a male pipe. It can also be welded on with a socket weld cap. It's best to allow extra pipe length before welding a cast cap on to the end, allowing this room will provide enough space for the cap to be cut from the pipe system when needed.Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes of 3000 lb forged caps do you carry?
The product table on this page lists 304 and 316 stainless steel 3000 lb forged caps, threaded and socket weld, from 1/2" to 2". For other sizes or grades, call (800) 282-9694 or send us a message.
What are the dimensions of a 1/2" cap?
On our data sheets a 1/2" Class 3000 threaded cap measures 1.260" end to end (P). The socket weld chart gives the end wall instead: 0.252" minimum (K) at 1/2", with the socket bore and depth.
Why does this page have two charts?
Our data sheets have threaded and socket weld charts, each with its own drawing. The socket weld chart on this page combines our two socket weld sheets, because the drawings on each sheet use letters from the other. Each chart uses the letters on its own drawing.
What does Class 3000 mean on the charts?
Class 3000 is the pressure class of these fittings (3000# in the product table). Our data sheets give some dimensions for Class 3000 and Class 6000; the charts show the Class 3000 columns.
