Viega MegaPress 316 2-Inch FKM Stainless Cap

The Viega MegaPress 316 2-Inch FKM Stainless Cap closes off the end of a 2 in stainless line. Use it to end a run, cap a branch for future expansion or isolate part of a system. If you need to extend the line later, you can cut the cap off and press on a new fitting.

MegaPress joins stainless pipe with a press tool and MegaPress jaws instead of threading, welding or brazing. There is no open flame or hot work involved, which matters in a boat's engine room or bilge. Cut the pipe square, deburr it, mark the insertion depth and press, and the joint is done in seconds.

Inside each press end, the grip ring bites into the pipe to hold it, the separator ring protects the seal, and the FKM sealing element makes the leak-tight joint. FKM handles higher temperatures and resists oils and fuels better than standard EPDM seals. The fitting works with Schedule 5 through Schedule 40 stainless steel pipe. The body is 316 stainless steel, which has molybdenum for better pitting and corrosion resistance in salt air and salt water than 304. Other MegaPress elbows, adapters, caps and couplings are in our marine pipe fittings section.
