The primary function of the American Threaded Cap is to seal the pipeline system at the pipeline terminal. The thread design enhances sealing performance. The primary manufacturing process is forging, which ensures sealing integrity while also increasing the product’s pressure-bearing capacity. The American Threaded Cap fittings are available in multiple material options, allowing selection based on different application scenarios.
