Cap-Tivation


 

I'm looking for some simple soft plastic end caps for SO-239 chassis connectors (pic) (have some metal ones). Do not need to be anti-static. Qty ~12. Having surprising difficulty finding them at reasonable prices (incl. shipping) on eBay and Amazon. Shipping $$$ on DXE. Any suggestions?

Thanks, --David KM6RI


 

If they don't have to be soft, I could try to 3d print them. You'd need a 3d model though

Hi Dave! ? If you search for "dust caps" on dxengineering you'll turn some up. ??

They sell direct, but you can also find them at various distributors?(e.g. Grainger, McMaster).

Thanks to all for your suggestions. CaPlugs has a wide selection, well-designed website and offers free samples (shipped free), some of which I've ordered. McMaster Carr seems a candy store for fasteners and gizmos--I have them bookmarked.?
