Which cap fits my box section?

Each size matches the outside dimensions of a common RHS section, so the cap sits flush with the outer faces ready for a fillet weld all round. Capped ends stop water getting into gate frames, trailer chassis rails, bench and table legs, and fence posts.

Choose your material

  • Mild steel: the economical choice. Paint, prime or galvanise it for outdoor use.
  • 304 stainless: the everyday stainless grade for indoor and sheltered outdoor use.
  • 316 stainless: best near the coast, pools, salt or chemicals. 304 vs 316 explained.

Questions

Will a 60 × 40 cap fit 60 × 40 × 3 box section?
Yes. The cap matches the outside size, so it sits flush with the outer faces whatever the wall thickness.

How much does a cap weigh?
An 80 × 40 × 3 mm mild steel cap weighs about 75 g.

Are these laser cut?
No. They are plasma cut and deburred, so edges show a plasma-cut finish and are not held to laser-cut tolerances. For tight-tolerance parts, send us a drawing.
