Drain caps
Drain caps in this category are ball valve variants designed for controlled drainage in heating and plumbing systems. They are commonly used for system maintenance, such as emptying or draining sections of piping. These caps are suitable for installation in systems operating at a maximum pressure rating of PN 10 and within a temperature range of -10 °C to +90 °C. The caps are available in different sizes and materials to suit a range of connection types and system requirements.
The caps are equipped with an external male thread (M) and a lever handle for manual operation. They are constructed from either brass CW617N or nickel-plated brass CW617N, depending on the variant. These materials offer corrosion resistance and durability in wet or humid environments typical of plumbing and heating installations.
How to choose
- Select the appropriate thread size (e.g., 1/2", 3/4", or 3/8") to match the pipe or fitting dimensions.
- Choose between standard brass (EURO M) or nickel-plated brass (EURO N) based on the desired corrosion resistance and visual finish.
- Ensure compatibility with the system pressure and temperature range (PN 10, -10 °C to +90 °C) to avoid premature failure.
