ASME B16.11 Cap

ASME B16.11 Cap Manufacturer & Supplier

ASME B16.11 Cap is a forged steel pipe fitting manufactured in accordance with the ASME B16.11 standard. It is designed to close the end of a threaded or socket weld pipe, providing a secure, leak-proof, and pressure-tight seal in high-pressure piping systems. These forged caps are widely used for terminating pipelines, isolating sections during maintenance, and sealing unused pipe ends in industrial applications.

The ASME B16.11 standard specifies the design, dimensions, pressure ratings, materials, manufacturing, marking, inspection, and testing requirements for forged Socket Weld and Threaded fittings. Manufactured using premium-quality raw materials and precision forging technology, our ASME B16.11 caps deliver exceptional mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, dimensional accuracy, and long service life.

Available in a wide range of sizes, pressure classes, and material grades, our ASME B16.11 caps are suitable for oil & gas, petrochemical, chemical processing, power generation, marine, offshore, pharmaceutical, water treatment, and other industrial piping systems.
