These TIMCO Hex Cover Caps are designed to fit over an 8mm hex head screw. The outer cap dimension is 16mm.
The caps are black.
Each pack contains 1000 caps.
While designed for a neat finish, their suitability for outdoor use depends on the material's resistance to weather conditions. For prolonged outdoor exposure, check manufacturer specifications for UV and moisture resistance.
No, these caps are designed to be applied by hand. Simply press them onto the hex head.
While possible, painting the caps may affect their finish and durability. It's best to use them in their intended color or choose caps that match your project's aesthetic.
The outer diameter of the cap is 16mm.
Ensure you are using a screw with an 8mm hex head. Check that the screw head is clean and free of obstructions. Press the cap firmly into place.
Re-check the compatibility with an 8mm hex head. Ensure the cap was pressed on fully. If the fastener is subject to significant vibration or stress, consider alternative fastening methods or adhesives if appropriate for the application.
Verify the hex head size. Sometimes a slight twist while pressing can help seat the cap. Ensure there is no damage to the cap or the fastener head.
Setup: These caps are designed for direct application. Simply align the cap over the exposed 8mm hex head of the screw or fastener and press firmly until it snaps into place. Ensure the hex head is clean and free from debris for a secure fit.
Compatibility: The primary compatibility requirement is that the fastener must have an 8mm hex head. The cap itself has a 16mm outer dimension. Always verify the size of your fastener's hex head before purchasing.
Care: These caps require minimal care. They are typically made of durable plastic and can be wiped clean with a damp cloth if they become dirty. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
