Hydraulic application caps and plugs provide the critical role of protecting hydraulic systems from dirt, moisture, corrosion and damage during manufacturing, transit, shipping and storage. All of which can be harmful factors contributing to hydraulic system failure. Hydraulic caps and hydraulic hose plugs should be used through various processes such as manufacturing – particularly in powder coating and painting, during assembly and packaging and also used during machine shutdown when undertaking routine maintenance or repair. Their job is to prevent all types of contaminant from entering hydraulic systems through ports and fittings.

Anti-Vibration Plugs are ideal for BSP hydraulic fittings. The notched thread design allows our anti-vibration plugs to prevent parts coming loose during movement. These hydraulic plugs are manufactured in a transparent colour allowing easy inspection of fitted O-rings
Available in LDPE or TPR, these Hose Washer Caps are applied on hose and tube ends in order to prevent them from sliding over the fittings. Our range includes Yellow and Black colour options and offers a range of sizes to suit your application needs.
Vinyl End Caps, commonly known as Flexicaps or PVC End Caps. A round cap that protects the outside diameter of threaded or non-threaded tubes, rods, pipes or paper tubes. The vinyl material can stretch on to larger dimensions for a tight fit without tearing, splitting or shredding.
These round vinyl end caps include a red flexible Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) 60 Shore version, which is made from softer and more flexible material that allows for easy fitting. The bright red colour offers high visibility, thus reducing health and safety risks. Also included is a black PVC 80 Shore version that is more rigid than the red option. Also available is a glossy, dip-moulded round end tip that has a smooth finish. Durable round plastic end caps for round tubing are ideal product presentation and protection.
These vinyl caps provide a high-gloss, attractive finish making them ideal for use as decorative end caps. The flexibility and durability allows suitable fit for multiple applications. They can be used as a mask for coating, plating and paint applications, where the maximum temperature is not higher than 350F.
Tapered Plastic Plug Caps have two functions; plug and cap.
The Tapered Plug is used to plug the end of tubing, pipes, and bars. Tapered Pipe Plugs are desiged to fit snugly on to the end of a tube to keep liquid, dirt and other ingres out of the cavity - or indeed to help retain the contents that is within. Alternatively, Cap Plugs can be used as Tapered Caps. The Tapered Cap fits neatly over the outside diameter at the end of a tube, pipe or bar. This prevents dirt, dust, moisture, liquids and other contaniments from entering the cavity opening during manufacturing, masking, storage, and transportation.
Our Tapered Cap Plug range is made from Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE). This durable Plastic Plug Caps material protects the application from damage, as well as offering corrosion resistance.The Tapered Plug Caps range is suitable for a wide range of hole diameters, so you're sure to find a solution to suit your project requirments.
These Plug Caps are available in a choice of colour options, including; Black, Blue, Clear (Transparent), Red and Yellow.
Our Gas Cylinder Valve Protectors, developed in conjunction with major European gas companies, protect industrial gas valves from ingress of dust and dirt. The yellow LDPE Gas Cylinder Valve Protectors are tamper evident, and feature a unique vent flap which allows safe release of gas following accidental opening of valve
The wide flange of these LDPE Tapered Caps & Plugs provides greater protection and easy removal. Designed for use as both a cap and a plug, they provide excellent protection from damage, dirt, moisture and corrosion during storage and transportation. Our range is available in Blue and Red.
Tube End Caps offer ideal protection for threaded or non-threaded tubing, pipes and rods. Standard, short and long caps are available. The short versions are for general purpose closure and the long versions have an extra depth and feathered edge that ensure a tight fit. The design of these longer caps helps to prevent accidental displacement. Tube End Caps serve the same purpose as Heat Shrink End Caps but do not shrink when heated during the application process. They are UV and weather resistant, making them ideal outdoor applications.
These LDPE Heavy Duty Tapered Caps & Plugs include a rugged wall and seal rings for maximum protection. The tapered profile allows the versatile part to plug multiple internal diameters or cap various external diameters. Our range is available in either Red or White.
Slottex Plugs are screw on protection plugs that can be applied or removed with screwdriver, spanner or socket. They can be tightened manually or with power tool. The range cover a large offering of dimensions suitable for Metric threads, BSP threads and UNF threads.
Standard round end caps, also referred to as protection caps are a versatile option to cover holes or threads during transportation, paint process or on a finished product. These LDPE caps can be used on tubes, pipes or rods. Available in either red or natural, there are three shapes, ranging from short caps to cover holes to longer caps which will cover long threads. These caps are easily applied by pushing onto application and can be re-used upon application removal. Customers that purchase our Standard Round End Caps regularly buy our Protective Netting.
Snap Fit Plugs have a single turn providing tight fit once pushed into position. The plug is design with a centre tab to allow a strong grip for tightening and easy removal. The range is suitable for Metric, BSP and UNF threads.
