Due to the range of colours and finishes available in the Caps, and the different styles of Washers available, Caps & Washers are priced and sold as separate items. Trade Prices are from: Electroplated caps can be used with both CSK and F/B washers or with Mirror Grommets for above-surface mounting of mirrors. Suggested uses:

Use the smallest fixing for the size Snap-Cap (ie use a 6gge (M3.5) screw in the 6/8 Snap-Caps or a 10gge (M5) with the 10/12 Snap-Caps. This allows more room for the plastic of the Washer to flex. Screw caps are much better than traditional corks at keeping oxygen out of your wine bottle. Oxygen causes wine to degrade faster, so ensuring it has as much insulation as possible is paramount.

The only problem i have was deciding what shade of blue to choose!!!!!! Plastic screw caps are easy to apply. You do not need any gears or extra strength to put them on, and taking them off is just as easy. Plus, there is no risk of them splintering and leaving wood fragments in your wine as with cork.

The range of colours and quality of the snap caps is only bettered by the service offered by the team. The staff was very helpful and efficient The snap caps were used to cover the screws which hold the toilet down and were just what was required. Excellent job

The net result is that electroplating (especially of plastics), is a fairly expensive process. Just as with a replacement badge for your car, or a new mixer-tap for your shower, there is a price for a quality metal finish, which is resistant to most household cleaning produts and which you fully expect will last for many years.
