ASTM A403 WP304/L WP316/L WP310S WP321 B16.9 Stainless Steel Butt Welding End Cap
The cap is a fitting that simplifies sealing pressure vessels or ends of pipes in a system. They are also referred to as pipe ends because a Cap is used at the extreme end of a pipe. Caps, when attached correctly provide a leak-proof sealing. While several industrial sectors use these fittings to seal pipes or pressure vessels. The Caps may also be used to eliminate the presence of air blocks in pipes, particularly in lines carrying water. Often, they are used to protect the ends of a pipe from getting deformed or chipped by external forces. Moreover, the use of a Butt Welding End Cap can prevent damage of internal threads inside the pipe or tube.

Note:
Where a ellipsis(﹍)appears in the table, there is no requirement and the element need to be analyzed for or reported
The method of analysis for nitrogen shall be a matter of agreement between the purchaser and manufacturer
Columbium 0.10-0.30%; Vanadium 0.10-0.30%.
For small diameter or thin walls, or both, where many drawing passes are required, a carbon maximum of 0.04% is necessary in grades TP304L and TP316L. Small outside diameter tubes are defined as those less than 0.500in.(23.7mm) in outside diameter and light wall tubes as those less than 0.049in.(1.24mm) in average wall thickness
