Description
Overview:
The 5" (159 mm) Female Cap S8 Galvanised Plated is a heavy‐duty end cap for closing off an S8 quick‐coupling line securely. Made from steel with a galvanised plated finish, it resists rust and wear in demanding site conditions. The female cap is used to blank off hoses, pipework, and couplings when a circuit needs isolating for transport, servicing, or storage. Common on construction and agricultural equipment such as site pumps, water bowsers, vacuum/slurry tankers, and dewatering systems, it helps prevent spills, ingress of dirt, and accidental flow. Precision-made for a consistent fit on S8 female interfaces, it suits both trade and DIY users working with water transfer, irrigation, and general fluid handling on plant and machinery.
Key Features:
- Robust steel construction with galvanised plating for long service life in wet and abrasive environments
- Sized for S8 systems: 5" (159 mm) for a dependable, repeatable fit on compatible couplings
- Corrosion resistant finish to handle outdoor storage and site use
- Designed to blank off lines quickly to reduce leakage and contamination risks
- Simple, tool-free fitting and removal when used with the correct S8 coupling interface
- Smooth, low-maintenance surfaces that are easy to clean down after use
- Suitable for high-vibration environments typically found on construction and agricultural machinery
- Helps protect pumps, valves, and hoses when equipment is idle or in transit
Typical Applications:
Blanking the end of S8 quick‐coupling lines on site pumps, dewatering sets, water bowsers, irrigation systems, and tanker equipment. Useful for isolating sections during service, transport, or wash‐down. Common on construction sites, farms, landscaping projects, and municipal works where reliable closure of large-diameter hose or pipework is required.
