Installation and care tips
Before installing, ensure the threads are clean and dry. Apply an appropriate thread sealant or Teflon tape to the mating male threads, then thread the cap on by hand until snug. Use a wrench to gently tighten further, taking care not to over-torque and damage the threads. Inspect for any wear over time, and replace if threads show damage. When not in use, keep the cap in its bagged packaging to preserve thread integrity for the next install.
Trust Smith-Cooper for a practical, safety-conscious solution that delivers a secure seal, dependable performance, and lasting value on 2-inch piping projects.
