Stainless Steel Pipe Caps

Stainless Steel cap has the advantages of high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, long service life, and stable and leak-proof joint. It is often used to stop the flow at the pipes end or protect pipes when transportation.

1. Stainless Steel Pipe Caps

Stainless Steel Pipe Cap is a sort of pipe fitting which covers the end of the pipe and other fittings. Pipe caps fit over or are welded onto the end of a pipe, providing a liquid or gas-tight seal.

Estan Pipe Fittings can supply stainless steel pipe end caps in standard sizes, as well as in accordance with a specification of our customers as per international standards.
