The Forgefix Pozi Compatible Cover Caps are designed for DIYers and professional tradespeople who need a clean, finished look for their projects. These caps provide a discreet, aesthetically pleasing solution by hiding exposed screw heads, making them perfect for furniture assembly, signage, and bathroom installations. While they significantly improve the appearance of visible fasteners, they are exclusively compatible with size 6 and 8 gauge (3.5-4.5mm) screws and cannot be used with other drive types like Phillips or Torx.

No, these are specifically designed for the Pozi drive geometry and will not fit securely into Phillips screw heads.
Yes, they can be pried out and reused if handled carefully, though the snap-fit retention may weaken over repeated removals.
While durable for indoor use, they are primarily intended for finish work and may show signs of yellowing if exposed to direct, intense sunlight for prolonged periods.
They are designed for 6 and 8 gauge screws, which equates to a diameter of approximately 3.5mm to 4.5mm.
No tools are required; they are designed for simple, manual push-in installation.
Ensure the screw is not driven too deep; the cap requires the full depth of the pozi recess to grip properly.
Verify that your screw is a Pozi drive; these caps will not fit Phillips, Torx, or slotted screw heads.
Check that the screw size is between 3.5mm and 4.5mm (No. 6-8); screws smaller than this will not provide enough friction for the cap.
To ensure a perfect fit, verify that your screws are standard Pozi drive heads and fall within the 3.5mm to 4.5mm diameter range. Installation is straightforward: push the male insert of the cap firmly into the center of the installed screw until it clicks or sits flush against the screw head. If the screw is countersunk too deeply, the cap may not sit flat. For care, these caps are made of durable plastic; clean them by simply wiping with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive sponges, as they may scratch the plastic surface and lose the clean, matte or satin finish.
