Description
A domed steel weld cap that closes the end of 48.3mm round tube with a neat rounded top. It has the same 48.3mm outside diameter as the tube, so it butt welds straight onto the cut end and, once ground, looks like part of the post. It keeps rain out of the tube and takes away the sharp open end. Plain mild steel, ready to paint or galvanise. The price is for one cap, minimum order 10.
Why choose this weld cap
Flush finish. Matched to 48.3mm tube, so the cap and tube meet edge to edge with nothing sticking out.
Seals the post. Welded all round, it stops water getting in and rusting the tube from the inside.
Safer ends. A smooth rounded top in place of a cut tube edge on handrails, barriers and bollards.
Where it is used
On handrails, scaffold-tube rails and safety barrier posts made from 48.3mm round tube.

Fitting
Cut the tube end square and take off any burr. Sit the cap on the end, line its edge up with the outside of the tube and tack it in three or four places. Weld all round, then grind the weld flush for a seamless rounded top. Clean off and paint, or galvanise with the rest of the work.
Frequently asked questions
Is the price for one cap?
Yes, one cap, with a minimum order of 10.
Does it push into the tube?
No. It is a weld cap: it sits on the end of the tube and is welded all round. It has the same outside diameter as 48.3mm tube.
Is it galvanised?
No. It is plain steel so it welds cleanly; paint or galvanise it with the post.
