The Strofix flat-end cap is an AISI 304 stainless-steel ultra-low-profile press-fit cap designed to close the open end of the Ø42.4 × 2 mm railing tube. The cap has a 3 mm height (H) and is supplied in satin finish. The cap is installed by driving it into the tube bore (elements for driving included).
The press-fit flat-end cap is driven into the open end of the Ø42.4 mm tube, creating an almost flush closure with a 3 mm profile. The cap sits nearly level with the tube face once installed. This SKU is a single fixed configuration for the Ø42.4 × 2 mm tube in satin finish – there are no selectable tube size, finish, or grade options. AISI 304 stainless steel is suitable for standard interior and exterior installations.
The satin finish provides a uniform appearance that matches other Strofix satin-finished railing components.
The flat-end cap fits the Ø42.4 × 2 mm round tube – the standard railing pipe in the Strofix product range.
The cap has a 3 mm height (H = 3 mm). This is an ultra-low-profile cap that sits nearly flush with the tube face.
The cap is installed by driving (pressing or tapping) it into the tube bore. This is a press-fit attachment – no adhesive or screws are used.
Both are press-fit caps for the Ø42.4 mm tube. The other press-fit cap (SKU GK422S) is 2 mm high and available in satin or polished finish. This cap is 3 mm high, satin only, and has an M8 thread.
No. This SKU is supplied in satin finish only. For a polished press-fit flat-end cap for Ø42.4 mm tube, see the multi-variant press-fit cap (SKU GK422S) in the End Caps category.
The flat-end cap is manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel. AISI 304 is suitable for standard interior and exterior installations.
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.
