Rubber end caps for tubing

When renovating your home, especially the bathroom and kitchen the plumbing can be the most difficult thing because if it is not done perfectly, it can cause damage not only to you but to your neighbors as well. When finishing the plumbing job, you will need to install rubber end caps for the tubes not to leave an open tube. If you work with tubes for a different job, let’s say installing fences then it may not be such a huge problem, but it still a good idea to cover the holes to prevent cuts or scratches since those edges can get quite sharp

The end caps for tubing are made to be inserted in the hole of the tube with a flat surface at the end to protect the area of the sharp edges of the tube, or to places above the tube like a glove to serve the same purpose. Since we talk about rubber end caps for tubing, we understand that most commonly these caps are made from rubber. Not just an ordinary rubber but synthetic rubber because it offers better performances and can be made differently depending on the conditions. 

They can be used for waterproofing and making a seal on the tube in case you work in plumbing and you don’t want to cause a disaster. The rubber end caps come in various shapes and sizes to find yourself what you need. The most common shapes are oval and squared but there are also rectangular and other shapes that are not that commonly used. The sizes can vary also since you need to fit them snugly in order to make a waterproof seal on the tube. You will need to measure the diameter and find the perfect size for that. You can also try one size bigger to be as tight as possible.
