Extra Rubber Caps for Carts

[DapperDan]

I was wondering if anyone knows of a place to get extra rubber caps for the end of the carts??

I have a bunch of spare carts lying around and would like to fill them up with liquid, but can't as I'm short on caps.

I know I can buy empty carts with the rubber caps, but would rather not as I'd still be left with bunches of random carts lying around...

Thanks everyone.



BTW, I did a forum search but only came up with this: e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/joye-510/34779-pcc-maintenance.html

Bump. I would like to know this too. When I get a chance, I want to check Aco Hardware and see if I could find something similar.

Ditto!

Good to see I'm not the only one curious about this...

I've not tried this yet because I have enough caps atm, but when I was at the hardware store looking for some parts for modding, I saw some plastic or rubber screw protectors. They come in several sizes and I checked the fit and they seem like they would work well. Plus they can come in different colors so you could color-code your flavors as well.

@lunaras

Could you post a link to what you're talking about?

I'm curious to see what exactly these things are that you're talking about. LOVE the idea for color coding...

Sure, I found some here. They're called thread protectors and are apparently made of vinyl (at least here) not plastic. The carry them at Menard's and more than likely at just about any other hardware store. At Menard's the color only varied based on size, so you'd probably only have at most the two closest sizes that would fit.

Oh, and if you scroll to the bottom on that link, they offer free samples, so you might be able to get a few to play with and see what size works best, etc.

That's awesome.

Totally going to go to a few hardware stores to check em out.

Thanks again!

Hi, you might as well sell me a membership to the "I-Need-Rubber-....-Plugs-But-Don't-Know-Where-To-Get-Them-Either" Club *LOL*!
Apparently, there seems to be a market for them!
So if someone knows anything, please speak up!

Lowes carries the thread protectors here. I bought some of the green ones for my J118 carts.

Hahaha! I know!

I really am in need of the actual silicon caps now since this mod just came out: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/cartridge-mods/53487-zfm-zero-filler-mod.html

They've been talking about all sorts of different silicon materials, but I want my caps!

 

[muddigger]

auto parts stores schucks kragen o reiley auto zone any of em that have performance parts on disply should have vacuum caps or plugs they look exactly the same and i think theyre silicone unfortunately u usually get different sizes and theyre not cheap but its another idea

I am looking for them too. Good news and bad news. I HAVE seen them for sale somewhere, but I cant remember where. I am going through my bookmarks now and will post a link as soon as I find them.

I found 902 Cartridge Caps. There is one review that says says they fit 510 carts also. I do not have a 902 system so I have no idea if they will work on the 510. Anyone out there know if the 902 and 510 ends are the same size or close? This is not the place I found them before, so I will post a link to those if I can find them again

Here is the link to the 902's

I ordered some 902 cart caps from Modern Vapor and will test them out when they come in and try to find this thread again to post the results. Fairly inexpensive with the "spring" coupon code for 25% off, well if you exclude shipping so I ordered enough to cover shipping with the code.

I know a number of folks that need some, so, if they work, it will solve a number of folks' issues with them.

Can't wait to hear your report!

OK, I spent the $1.45 for a pack of 10, ordered more than one pack, plus shipping to see if these 902 cart caps would work on my 510 carts from here. (They have a coupon code "spring" that gives a discount, but I have no idea how long it lasts.)

I filled some round carts and some flat tip carts and used them... They work!

They are a thinner material and slightly shorter, but work for sealing off the end of the cart. I do not think they would be any good for the ZFM, but for replacing caps used for ZFM and lost caps, they work fine.

 

[HzG8rGrl]

Will they work on the cartomizers? Like on the KR808D-1.

 

[Hoosier]

Sorry, I only have 510 parts to try them on and can only say they work on my 510 carts.

 

[muttSRT]

I got 10 for the 510 that i dont use...anyone that wants them, let me know and i will mail them to you....i guess first to post they want them, gets them.... if you are the first send me a PM with your address and i will get them in the mail, asap.
