I actually had trouble finding test caps.

What I did find was sink drain that has the flange on it, can be purchased in 6 inch length and is thin wall. It looks like the prefect thing. Its 1 1/2 inch just like the test cap.

My order hasnt come in yet from Tower Hobbies so Ill bring back my news as to whether it works but I did pull the MaxiJet 1200 housing and compare the flange thickness on the housing and the drain. The drain piece is about double the thickness of the housing flange. However, a palm sander can fix that in a hurry.

Anyways, Home Depot had the item made by Watts, its labeled 706666H, with a SKU of 0145339 and UPC of 42805 08155 6

Its in the sink plumbing section, NOT in the PVC fitting section.

Notice that you dont have to worry about mounting the test cap, you can just drill or cut in your holes or slits and cut it to length.
