The B&K 521-401HN is a rugged and reliable black iron cap designed to seal the end of a piping system in industrial, commercial, and residential applications. Constructed from malleable iron and finished with a protective black coating, this fitting is engineered for strength, corrosion resistance, and long-term performance in demanding environments.
Featuring a 1/4-inch Female Iron Pipe (FIP) connection, this cap is ideal for terminating pipe runs that carry non-potable fluids such as lubricants, oils, greases, liquefied petroleum (LP) gases, natural gases (including nitrogen and oxygen), steam, and diesel. It is not intended for use in potable water systems.
The cap’s threaded ends comply with ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standards, ensuring a secure and leak-resistant seal. Rated for up to 500 PSI at 150°F, it meets ASTM and ASME specifications and is part of the 150-lb class of malleable fittings. The relative softness of the metal helps form a tight seal, making it a dependable choice for high-pressure systems.
