FAQs

What material are these filter caps made from?

The Urth Lens Filter Caps are made from hardened magnalium, a durable and lightweight metal alloy.

How do I know which size filter cap to buy?

You need to match the millimeter size of your lens filter exactly. For example, if your filter is 67mm, you should purchase the Urth Lens Filter Caps - 67mm.

Will these caps protect my filters from scratches?

Yes, they protect the filter threads from damage and the filter surface from dust and accidental touches when stored. The cap itself is designed to be durable.

Are these caps heavy?

No, they are designed to be lightweight and take up less space, making them ideal for reducing the load in a camera bag.

What is the warranty on these caps?

Urth backs these caps for life, indicating a commitment to their durability and quality.

Can I use these on lens caps?

No, these are specifically designed to screw onto the front filter threads of camera lens filters, not onto lens caps.

How do I clean the metal filter caps?

You can clean them with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth with water and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Cap is difficult to screw on.

Ensure you have the correct size cap for your filter. Check that the filter threads are clean and free of debris. Try screwing on gently without forcing.

Cap feels loose.

Verify that you are using the correct size cap. If it's the correct size and still loose, the filter's threads might be worn. Ensure it's screwed on as far as it will go.

Cap is stuck.

Try gently twisting the cap back and forth. If it's very tight, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant (specifically designed for metal threads) to the threads, let it sit for a moment, and then try to unscrew. Avoid excessive force.

Pros and Cons

  • Secure fit prevents accidental detachment.
  • Protects filter threads from damage and debris.
  • Easy to grip and operate.

Cons

  • Requires precise sizing for each filter diameter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Identify the millimeter size of your lens filter (e.g., 67mm).
  2. Select the corresponding Urth Lens Filter Cap size.
  3. Gently screw the cap onto the front threads of the filter until snug. Do not overtighten.

Compatibility:

These caps are designed to fit standard screw-on lens filters. Ensure you match the cap size precisely to your filter size (e.g., a 67mm cap fits a 67mm filter). Urth offers a range of sizes to accommodate most common filter diameters.

Care:

  • Wipe with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust and smudges.
  • For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth (water only) and dry immediately.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the metal finish.
  • Store in a dry place when not in use.
