Threaded Caps & Plugs

 (22 product groups)

Which applications need threaded caps & plugs?

Threaded caps and threaded plugs are designed to provide protection. The design prevents damage, dirt, corrosion and moisture from entering the internal threads. Threaded plastic plugs and plastic thread caps are commonly used throughout the automotive, fluid power and engineering industries whilst plastic threaded plugs are especially useful in hydraulic processes. 

Types of threaded caps & plugs in our range:

Our threaded caps and plugs are produced in plastic materials including HDPE, LDPE and polypropylene and are stocked in a large range of thread types. Thread options include unified thread caps, metric threaded plugsBSP and more. Threaded plastic caps and plugs are designed to be easily installed onto the thread with protection properties that prevent deterioration over time. Shortening the life of these solutions is often caused by liquid ingress and oxidisation. Our range is packed with many styles, colors, types and sizing options to guarantee we stock the cap or plug you require.

For more insight on caps and plugs, we have put together our Guide to Thread Protection Caps & Plugs, full of information to guide you through your projects and applications. Check out our Knowledge Centre for lots more information about plastic caps, threaded hole plugs and many more styles of caps and plugs.
