Product Information
Full details
The MK Trunking End Cap is an essential component for electricians, DIY enthusiasts, and contractors looking to achieve a polished, professional finish on their cable management systems. Designed specifically for 40mm x 16mm trunking, this accessory seals off exposed conduit ends to enhance safety and aesthetics; however, it is strictly non-compatible with other trunking dimensions or profiles, necessitating precise measurement before installation.

FAQs
Can I use this on non-MK trunking?
This end cap is specifically designed for the MK 40mm x 16mm trunking profile. It may not fit other brands securely due to variations in manufacturing tolerances.
Does this end cap require screws to install?
No, it is a push-fit component designed for quick and easy installation without the need for additional fixings.
Can the end cap be painted?
While the finish is a standard white, it can be lightly sanded and painted if you need to match a specific wall color, though it is intended for use as-is.
What is the material made of?
It is made from high-grade, impact-resistant PVC plastic.
Will this protect cables from water?
It provides a physical barrier against debris and dust, but it is not rated as a watertight or weatherproof seal.
Troubleshooting
The end cap feels loose.
Verify that the trunking cut is perfectly square and that no internal burrs from sawing are preventing a flush fit.
The cap will not snap on.
Check that the trunking is indeed the 40mm x 16mm MK specification, as smaller or larger profiles will not accommodate this component.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your trunking run is complete and the end is cut cleanly at a 90-degree angle. Push the end cap firmly onto the open end of the 40mm x 16mm trunking until you hear or feel a positive engagement. This product is only compatible with the standard MK 40mm x 16mm range. For care, avoid using harsh chemical solvents that may discolor or degrade the white finish. Simply wipe down with a damp, lint-free cloth if the surface becomes dusty or soiled.
