The Fernco hose bibbs provide a quick, reliable way to cap open pipe ends, clean-outs, or test connections while also offering a threaded hose outlet for convenient drainage or attachment. Designed for use in drain, waste, and vent (DWV) systems, these reusable caps are ideal for pressure testing, construction, maintenance, and service applications. Their convex face design helps withstand higher pressures and reduces ballooning during testing. Hose bibbs install easily by placing over an open pipe end and tightening to the recommended torque for a secure, leak-resistant fit. Available in multiple sizes to fit common pipe diameters.
Unmatched quality and performance. Built to last the life of the plumbing system, Fernco couplings are made from elastomeric polyvinyl chloride for a strong, leak-proof fitting that's resistant to chemicals and sewer gases.
Reusable cap. Can be used as a permanent or temporary closure, making it highly versatile.
Flexible fit. Designed to cap and seal 3" pipe while providing a hose-thread outlet.
