Hydrant Caps
Nylon Hydrant Caps
Nylon Hydrant Caps are only 25% the weight of cast iron caps, yet they withstand normal hydrant operating pressure and resist permanant deformation under stress. Standard stocked cap sizes with NST threads are made for 2.5" and 4.5" hydrant outlets.
Hydra-Shield Nylon Hydrant Caps offer several advantages.
Permanent Color Coding - permanent color pigments are added to the plastic resin. this eliminates the need for painting maintenance. A choice of colors provides an economical way to color code for hydrant flow or special identification.
No Maintenance - the nylon caps are impact resistant, cannot rust, and never require thread lubrication. And, they are very resistant to the effects of ultraviolet (UV) exposure.
Lower Cost - Nylon replacement caps generally cost less than metal counterparts, and as the scrap value is minimal, the threat of theft is also minimal.
Optional Enhancements - These remarkable caps can be enhanced with the addition of adhesive reflective trim for improved night time visibility.
Caps are also available with a perimeter groove for attaching a cable or chain loop.
Caps may be ordered with alternate thread and operating nut configuration.
