Brass end cap 1½" FERRO ZAS6Z – threaded brass pipe fitting

FERRO ZAS6Z is a brass end cap designed for 1½" threaded pipe connections. Manufactured from brass, this threaded cap provides a close, corrosion-resistant closure for open pipe ends in plumbing and heating applications. It is suitable for both temporary and permanent capping where a reliable mechanical seal is required to prevent leaks and to keep out dirt and moisture.

Advantages

The brass construction ensures good resistance to corrosion and mechanical wear while maintaining dimensional stability under typical domestic and commercial conditions. The threaded design allows straightforward installation and removal without special tools. Its compatibility with standard 1½" threaded fittings makes it a practical choice for repairs, maintenance and new installations where a durable closure is needed.

Suitable for

• Plumbing systems and water supply lines
• Heating systems and radiators
• Temporary capping during maintenance or pressure testing
• Permanent closure of unused pipe ends

Key specifications

• Material: brass
• Connection type: female threaded end cap for 1½" pipe threads
• Function: closes open pipe ends to prevent leaks and ingress of debris
• Application environment: potable water, heating systems, general plumbing
• Installation: screw-on/threaded connection

How to use

Clean the pipe end and threads of any debris or corrosion before installation. Apply appropriate thread sealant or tape if required by the system specifications. Screw the brass end cap onto the male 1½" thread by hand until seated, then tighten with a suitable wrench to achieve a leak-free connection, taking care not to overtighten and damage the threads. For removal, apply wrench torque in the opposite direction and unthread the cap. Follow local plumbing codes and system manufacturer instructions during installation and testing.

Usage recommendations

Use thread sealant compatible with brass and the conveyed medium; avoid aggressive chemical sealants that can cause dezincification. Verify pressure and temperature limits of the piping system before permanent installation and perform a leak test after fitting the cap.
