I'm designing a steel lumber rack for my workshop and would like to use those black plastic end caps to give the project a "finished" look. Caps & Plugs are a source for these things - if you want to load up with 2000 of them. Anyone know a place that might sell them in lower qty?
Thanks

Ask for samples. We did that for a project at the place I worked last year. We had to have several people ask for the same thing to get enough, but we received 2 dozen caps all together.

I would check with Outwater Plastics. Dave

Thanks for the tips fellows. We have done the "samples" route at my work as well - but I think I would be stretching my limits on this project. Worth a try though.
Thanks again

Why not make a wood plug for them -- with the body the size of the hole, and a larger "cap" to prevent it from falling in the hole -- you could paint it the color of the post to blend in.
Just another option ...

Here,we have a place that is call Triple S Steel,and they sell all kinds of stuff for steel.I'm sure a place that sells steel to people that makes iron rod fences is around your location.
