Push-Fit Thread Protection Hydraulic Application Caps & Plugs

Flanged caps are designed to protect threaded connectors or fittings but are used to fit both threaded or round surfaces. You can assemble or remove these caps by hand or automated equipment.

Round End caps are designed to protect outside diameters of threaded or non-threaded tubing, pipe and rods. They are available in a wide range of sizes and lengths depending on your application needs. Any part number that has a W/R or AR found in it has an internal molded ring or internal ribs for extra gripping power and superior retention.

Our wide range of Round Vinyl End Caps is made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). The round plastic end caps flexible material can stretch on to larger dimensions for a snug fit without tearing, splitting or shredding.

Vinyl protective caps are typically used to protect threaded or non-threaded tubing, rods, pipe or paper tubes. These round vinyl caps have a glossy and attractive finish that makes them ideal for use as a decorative vinyl pipe end caps.

Our round PVC cap color options include;

• DM - Black - 75 Durometer
• DMS - Red - 63 Durometer

The red vinyl end caps are highly visible, making it useful in high risk assemblies. All vinyl tube end caps are suitable for temperatures ranges up to 350F.

Tapered Caps and Plugs made from Red and Blue Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE). A versatile assembly that can be used as both a tapered cap or a tapered plug.

The tapered design allows the part to plug multiple inner diameters or cap multiple outside diameters. The Tapered Cap Plug protects the assembly against damage, dirt, moisture and corrosion during storage and shipping. The series has parts with a heavy duty design, which includes a rugged wall and seal rings for maximum protection.

To assure a proper fit;

• The tapered plugs outer diameter should be approximately 1% larger than the inner diameter of the part (minimum of 0.020 inch).
• The tapered caps inner diameter should be approximately 1% smaller than the outside diameter of the part (minimum of 0.020 inch).

Wide Flange Tapered Caps & Plugs provides a greater protection to threaded and non-threaded pipes, ports, and access points during storage and transit against damage, dirt, moisture, debris, and corrosion. Designed to allow the part to plug multiple inside diameters or outside diameters.

Easy to install and remove due to their threaded and smooth connectors. Wider flange provides greater support for bearing surfaces and prevents the plug from being accidentally pushed down through the contact piece. Suitable for use in hydraulic systems, automotive components, chemical or medical industries.

Tear Tab Caps are a standard, off-the-shelf solution that will allow you to meet your customers demands without those all-too-common time delays.

Tear Tab Caps are quick-fit and quick-release caps. As a rapid solution, they can be easily fitted and removed across an array of applications, including: critical hydraulic tubes and pipes, such as those that carry oils and other fluids around vehicles and machineries. This makes them an ideal choice for the specialist vehicle manufacturing industry, and other automotive and manufacturing sectors.

Tear Tab Caps also assist in the protection of tube and pipe ends during transportation and storage. They protect parts from damage, dirt, moisture and other forms of ingress. These caps are highly versatile, and ideal for a range of applications and different threads, including; BSP, GAS, UNF, JIC and NPT.

Made from Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), the caps feature a simple tear-away tab for quick release and fast removal. The ease of extracting the Tear Tab Cap from the hydraulic pipework makes the removal process faster. By simply pulling the tab, the cap splits open, tearing away.

The LDPE material is tough and flexible. They provide many of the advantages of PVC caps, such as integrity and cleanliness.
