FAQs

What size fasteners do these caps fit?

These caps are designed specifically for M6 nuts and bolts.

Are these caps suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, they offer protection against dust and light moisture. However, prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions may affect their longevity.

Can I paint these cover caps?

While possible, painting may affect the plastic's flexibility and durability. If painting, use a plastic-compatible primer and paint, and test on a single cap first.

How many caps are in a box?

The product description indicates a box of 100 caps.

Are these caps reusable?

Yes, they can typically be removed and reused, provided they are not damaged during removal.

What material are the caps made from?

They are made from durable, high-quality plastic.

Do these caps provide sealing against water?

They offer basic protection against dust and light splashes but are not designed for a watertight seal.

Troubleshooting

Cap does not fit securely

Ensure you are using an M6 nut or bolt. The fastener may have damaged threads or an incompatible head shape. Verify the cap is pushed on evenly and fully.

Caps fall off easily

Apply more consistent pressure during installation. Check if the fastener has any obstructions preventing a flush fit. For very high-vibration applications, consider a dab of non-permanent threadlocker on the fastener before applying the cap (allow to cure).

Plastic appears brittle or cracked

This may indicate exposure to extreme temperatures or impact. Inspect the batch for defects. Avoid exposing the caps to temperatures significantly outside standard room conditions for prolonged periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

These cover caps are designed for straightforward installation. Simply align the cap with the M6 nut or bolt head and apply firm, even pressure until it clicks or seats securely. No tools are required for application.

Compatibility:

These caps are specifically designed for standard M6 nuts and bolts. Ensure your fasteners are indeed M6 size for a proper fit. They are compatible with various materials where M6 fasteners are used, including metal, wood, and plastic.

Care:

To clean the cover caps, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the plastic. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth. Periodically check that the caps remain securely in place, especially in high-vibration environments.
