This is a follow up question to my other post "Best way to remove lead cap in cast iron main trap" https://terrylove.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24926
I went to Home depot and they have caps made from brass, lead, pvc and of a rubber/plastic expansion design. What is the plus and minus of each?
Also upon closer examination, one of the existing plugs is not lead which I assume means it is brass. Is removal of a brass cap different than a lead one? I am thinking, if it is stuck to go at it with a pneumatic cut off wheel to make it easier to break apart.
I am going to do the job this weekend.
Thanks again the help is much appreciated.
