Product Information
Full details
The Preston EVA Pole End Cap 49mm is an essential accessory for pole anglers who want to extend the lifespan of their equipment by protecting expensive carbon sections from accidental damage. Designed for versatility, these caps are perfect for anglers fishing at shorter lengths without the butt section, though users must ensure they verify their pole's specific diameter to guarantee the 49mm size provides a secure, friction-fit seal.

FAQs
Does this cap fit all pole brands?
This cap is designed based on a 49mm diameter. While it may fit various brands, it is strictly dependent on the internal diameter of your specific pole section.
Can I leave this in the pole during transport?
Yes, it is highly recommended to leave the cap in place during transport to protect the carbon edges from vibrating against other sections.
What is the benefit of EVA over plastic caps?
EVA is lighter and provides a better friction fit, ensuring the cap does not vibrate loose while also providing cushioning against hard impacts.
How do I measure my pole for this cap?
Use a digital caliper to measure the internal diameter of the pole section where you intend to place the cap.
Will the material degrade over time?
EVA is highly durable and resistant to water and UV light, though it should be stored in a cool, dry place to ensure longevity.
Troubleshooting
End cap feels loose and falls out
Clean the inside of the pole section with a soft cloth to remove grit and debris that may prevent the EVA from making full contact.
Difficult to insert or remove
Ensure the cap is aligned perfectly straight; if it is slightly angled, the friction fit will become too tight to move smoothly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents structural damage to expensive carbon sections
- Lightweight and durable EVA material
- Easy to install and remove on the bank
- Protects against debris ingress during storage
Cons
- Size-specific; only fits poles with an internal diameter of 49mm
- May require occasional cleaning to maintain friction
- Not intended for heavy-duty structural reinforcement
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply align the 49mm end cap with the opening of your pole section and press firmly until it sits flush against the carbon rim. Ensure that the inside of the pole is free from heavy dirt or sand before insertion to maintain a good seal. Compatibility is strictly tied to the internal diameter of your pole; always measure the section before purchasing to confirm the 49mm fitment. For care, simply wipe the EVA material with a damp cloth after a session to remove any fish oils, groundbait, or silt. Allow the cap to air dry completely before replacing it in the pole to prevent moisture buildup within the carbon sections.
