This provides an airtight and watertight seal that excludes atmosphere and protects the fastener head from rust and corrosion.
This table indicates some of the different types and sizes of fixings that can be used with Snap-Caps.
Snap-Caps ( aka "Dome caps" or "UniCaps") were developed more than 40 years ago, and are still the best and most secure way to cover and protect screws, fixings and fasteners. The Fix: Before using, simply warm the caps in an 'inside' pocket (ie close to your body), or in an oven or similar warming device to a maximum of 100°C. Was supplied with a colour matching sample pack before I chose the cap which made colour matching easy. In essence, once water enters a space (because it is not sealed properly) instead of the water evaporating out again later, it becomes water vapour and remains in the space for a much longer time. The Snap-Cap washer is available to suit either Countersunk screws, or for any of the ‘Flat-Bottom’ fixings (such as pan-head screws).
Our Egger Range 2020-2023 encompasses 121 individual products with varying degrees of finish: Smooth, Pearl, Pore.
It is by no means definitive, and there are numerous examples of imported fixings that are sized differently enough to not fit. I spoke to a helpful guy on the phone who was very enthusiastic and helpful about the range of Snap Cap products.
The cap is then "snapped" over the washer, mating by means of an interlocking peripheral groove and flange.
