The Strofix weld-on end cap is an AISI 304 stainless-steel plate with a Ø8 mm hole that closes Ø42.4x4 mm railing tube. Supplied with a raw (unfinished) surface.
The cap is welded to the tube end rather than pressed in, giving a permanent seal that cannot be knocked out or removed. TIG or MIG welding is required; the weld and surrounding surface are ground and finished on site after fitting. The Ø8 mm hole allows a cable, rod or drainage path to pass through the closed end.
The raw surface is standard for welded caps because the finish is applied after welding. AISI 304 stainless steel is suitable for standard interior and exterior installations.
Use cases:
- Closing a Ø42.4 mm post or handrail end by welding
- Permanent termination where a press-fit cap is not wanted
- Workshop fabrication of railing posts before site delivery
- Structural post ends that must not be removable
- Outdoor installations where a welded seal is preferred
FAQ:
What tube does this cap fit?
It fits Ø42.4 mm railing tube with a 4 mm wall.
Why is there a hole in the cap?
The Ø8 mm hole lets a cable, rod or drainage path pass through the closed tube end.
How is it fitted?
It is welded to the tube end. TIG or MIG welding is required – this is a professional step, usually carried out in a workshop.
Why is the surface raw?
The cap is ground and finished after welding, so it is supplied unfinished. A press-fit cap in satin or polished finish is available where welding is not wanted.
What steel grade is used?
AISI 304 stainless steel.
About End Caps
An end cap closes the open end of a railing tube, post or crossbar rod, keeping water and dirt out and giving the end a clean, finished look.
Strofix supplies 31 end caps in three families: for Ø42.4 mm tube (flat, convex, ellipsoid, 90° elbow and weld-in caps), for 40 × 40 mm profile (flat and weld-in caps) and for Ø10 and Ø12 mm crossbar rods (15–30 mm high, in flat, ball and droplet shapes).
Most are AISI 304 satin; polished versions, raw weld-in caps and AISI 316 on selected caps complete the range. The correct end cap depends on the profile it closes, the shape and whether it is fitted or welded.
