FAQs

What materials are the caps made of?

The Allstar Performance Female Blanking Cap Kit is made from high-quality red plastic.

What AN sizes are included in the kit?

The kit includes AN -3, AN -4, AN -6, AN -8, AN -10, AN -12, and AN -16 caps.

Can these caps be used with all types of fluids?

While the caps are suitable for general use, it's recommended to check for compatibility with specific fluids, especially those that may react with plastic. Consult your fluid specifications for more details.

How many caps are in the kit?

The kit contains a total of 35 caps: 5 of each size (AN -3, AN -4, AN -6, AN -8, AN -10, AN -12, and AN -16).

Where can I store the caps?

Store the caps in a clean, dry place to prevent them from collecting dust or debris.

Are these caps reusable?

Yes, these caps are reusable. However, inspect them for damage or wear before each use and replace them if necessary to maintain a secure seal.

Can I use these caps on fittings other than AN (JIC)?

The caps are primarily designed for AN (JIC) fittings. They may also fit 37-degree flared fittings and straight threaded unions, but check the fit to ensure a secure seal.

Troubleshooting

Cap doesn't fit the fitting.

Double-check the fitting size and ensure you are using the correct cap. The kit includes multiple sizes, so select the right one.

Cap is difficult to install.

Make sure the fitting is clean and free of debris. Apply firm, even pressure to push the cap onto the fitting. If needed, slightly lubricate the fitting with a compatible fluid (e.g., fuel) to ease installation.

Cap leaks.

Ensure the cap is fully seated and properly aligned on the fitting. If the fitting or cap is damaged, replace either the cap or the fitting.
