Plastic caps are indispensable closure elements for reliable protection of threaded parts, pipes and other sensitive components in industrial applications. These specially developed protective elements made from Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) provide optimal protection against dust, moisture, mechanical damage and chemical influences.

LDPE caps for versatile applications
Plastic caps made from LDPE are characterized by their flexibility, softness and exceptional impact resistance. With an operating temperature range from -30°C to +60°C (briefly up to +80°C), they are excellently suited for use in mechanical engineering, hydraulic and pneumatic technology as well as chemical technology. The tensile strength of 15-20 MPa with an elongation at break of 300-1000% ensures permanent functionality.

HDPE caps for highest requirements
HDPE plastic caps offer extended temperature resistance from -50°C to +80°C (briefly up to +100°C) and convince through their high tensile strength of 25-32 MPa. They are chemically resistant to weak and strong acids, alkalis as well as organic solvents and protect sensitive materials such as paints, textiles, glass and ceramics.

Comprehensive product range:

• Cover cap made from HDPE with rosette
• Bolt protection cap made from LDPE
• Fan stud bolt cap made from LDPE
• Thread protection cap made from LDPE
• Ribbed cap made from LDPE
• Pipe protection cap made from LDPE
• Grease nipple cap made from LDPE
• Hexagonal protection cap made from HDPE
• Decorative cap made from HDPE for Pozidriv cross slot

The chemical resistance of both materials against inorganic and organic acids as well as alkalis makes them the ideal choice for demanding applications in process engineering and medical technology.

Plastic caps and other products, such as plastic plugs, elastomer caps and closure elements, are available directly in the online shop of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik. The range of RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik offers over 80,000 different products, which are used among others in mechanical engineering, chemical technology, process engineering as well as medical technology.
