Troubleshooting
Cap does not snap securely onto the fastener.
Verify that the screw or nail size is within the 8g–10g (4–5mm) range. Ensure the fastener is not over-tightened or sunk too deep into the material, preventing the cap from closing properly.
Cap feels loose after installation.
This may indicate the fastener is too small for the 5mm hole. Check if the fastener is the correct size (8g-10g). If the correct size fastener is used and it still feels loose, consider using a different capping solution or alternative fastening method.
Plastic appears cloudy or degraded over time.
This can occur with prolonged exposure to harsh UV conditions. While the material is designed for outdoor use, extreme or prolonged exposure may lead to degradation. Regular inspection is advised. If degradation is significant, replacement may be necessary.
