High-Visibility Pull-Tab Caps

A vibrant yellow color makes these caps stand out. They are made of flexible rubber that conforms for a snug fit. Pull the tab for easy removal.

Squeeze Top Caps

Squeeze the dome top to remove these caps. They're commonly used as thread protectors.

Heat-Shrink Round Caps

Permanently seal pipe, tubing, conduit, and even crimped electrical connections. Slide these flexible caps on and use a heat gun to tightly shrink them to the shape of whatever they are covering. Their outer surface shrinks while the inner wall flows into voids to create a sealed connection.

Stretchable Sealing Caps

Tug on the pull tabs to stretch these caps onto the tips of bottles, beakers, flasks, and cylinders, creating an airtight seal.

Stretchable Elastic Caps

Similar to a shower cap, these caps have an elastic band that allows them to stretch and cover a variety of shapes in a range of sizes.

Fastener Caps

Screw Caps

Conceal and protect the tops of socket head or button head screws.

Hex Nut Caps

Sized to fit hex nuts, these caps snap on for a tight hold and provide protection from corrosion.

Hinged Fastener Caps

A one-piece hinged design allows frequent access to screw heads without misplacing the top. To conceal and protect the entire screw head, insert your screw through the hole in the base and flip the hinged top over.

Snap-On Fastener Caps

To conceal and protect the entire screw head, insert your screw through the hole in the base and snap on the top.

Flange Caps

Adhesive-Back Flange Caps

Stick these caps on the raised surfaces of flanges or other flat surfaces for extra protection during transport and storage.

Flange Caps

Snap these caps into flange bolt holes to safeguard pipe flanges during shipping, storing, and finishing applications. They all have a thick center pad to protect the flange opening and pipe threads from damage.

SAE Flange Caps

Protect SAE hydraulic flanges during shipping, storing, and finishing applications.

Rebar Caps

Keep personnel safe from protruding rebar and pipe. Made of rigid plastic, these durable safety caps are bright orange or yellow for excellent visibility.

Round Plugs

Threaded Round Plugs for Straight-Thread Pipe

Seal tube and hose fittings to keep their straight threads protected from contaminants during fabrication and storage.

Threaded Round Plugs for NPT Pipe

Protect internally threaded NPT connections from contaminants during fabrication and storage.

High-Temperature Round Plugs for NPT Pipe

These plugs withstand temperatures up to 600° F to protect internally threaded NPT connections from contaminants during electropainting, paint baking, and powder coating applications.

Threaded Round Plugs for 37° Flared Tube

Designed to fit into 37° flared connections such as those found on JIC and SAE fittings, these plugs protect internally threaded connections from contaminants during fabrication and storage.

Threaded Round Plugs for BSPT Pipe

Safeguard internally threaded BSPT connections from contaminants during fabrication and storage.

Antistatic Round Plugs

Keep equipment safe from electrical currents with these plugs that have a surface resistivity of less than 10¹² ohms.

Round Plugs
