MOCAP threaded plastic caps shield products from moisture, contamination, dust

Threaded caps come in three series from MOCAP.

Celebrating its 40th anniversary this year, MOCAP has grown into the top manufacturer in North America of rubber, plastic, and vinyl products for protection, masking, or finishing applications. The company supplies an unsurpassed selection that includes plugs, grips, and three kinds of protective plastic caps – tapered, friction-fit, and threaded caps. Designed specifically to protect fittings and threads, threaded plastic caps are ideal for shielding items from moisture, contamination, dust, and other kinds of damage during the production, storage, and shipping phases of manufacturing.

Masking for plating, painting

MOCAP makes these units from red, low-density polyethylene, and the team adds knurled grips that make them easier to apply. A major benefit is the seals, which are stronger than those on caps from competitors are, and users can apply them with simple hand tightening. Threaded caps are also suitable for masking in plating and painting applications, although they are used most frequently for protection purposes.

The following three series of threaded plastic caps are available from MOCAP:

• BGC series. These are designed for British Standard Pipe threads and fittings, ranging from 1/8-28 to 1-1/12-11. The BGC series includes 13 sizes of caps, ranging from 9.6 to 27.6 millimetres (mm) in length and rib counts going from four to eight.
• CMT series. This series is built for metric threads and firrings that go from M8 to M52. Twenty different sizes are available in this series, and they run from ten to 16 mm in length and from four to eight in rib count.
• FJC series. These threaded caps are manufactured for flared JIC fittings that range from 3/8-24 to 1-7/8 and 3/16 to 1½ tubes. MOCAP offers 33 sizes of caps in the FJC series, ranging in tube sizes from 4.8 to 38.1 mm, in length from 7.6 to 25.4 mm, and in rib count from four to eight.

The MOCAP team stocks these threaded plastic caps at its headquarters in Park Hills, MO for immediate shipment. The company offers them in mini-paks, micro-packs, and regular case quantities. Trust MOCAP for top protective solutions.
