FAQs

What size fasteners do these caps fit?

These cover caps are designed specifically for M10 nuts and bolts.

Are these caps weatherproof?

The durable plastic offers protection against dirt and moisture, but they are not designed for extreme weather conditions or prolonged direct UV exposure without potential degradation over time.

Can these caps be used on the outside of a project exposed to elements?

Yes, they can be used for light protection and aesthetic enhancement on exterior projects. However, for harsh environments, periodic inspection and possible replacement are recommended.

How do I install the cover caps?

Installation is a simple push-fit process. Align the cap with the M10 nut or bolt and press firmly until it is securely in place.

What materials are these caps made from?

They are made from high-quality plastic.

Can I remove and reuse these caps?

Yes, the caps can be removed and reused, although frequent removal and reinstallation might slightly loosen their grip over time.

How many caps are included in a box?

A box of Unifix Plastic Cover Caps M10 (NNCB10) typically contains 100 caps.

Troubleshooting

Cap does not fit snugly

Verify that the fastener is indeed an M10 size. Ensure there is no debris on the fastener or inside the cap preventing a full insertion.

Cap falls off easily

Ensure the cap is fully pressed onto the fastener. If the fastener is not fully threaded or is damaged, it might not provide sufficient surface area for the cap to grip. For added security, a small amount of appropriate adhesive can be used, though this is not standard practice.

Plastic appears faded or brittle

This may indicate prolonged exposure to sunlight or extreme temperatures. The caps are designed for general use; consider using them in more protected areas or replacing them if degradation is significant.
