The low-profile end cap with an Allen socket, ideal for isolating the side outlets of Scubatec modular valves.
The Scubatec Manifold Cap, available on DIR-STORE, is the fundamental component for those who wish to convert a valve designed for twin cylinders (or a modular single valve) into an isolated and clean single monoblock valve. This blanking plug screws directly into the side port of the valve body, sealing the outlet with the minimum possible geometric footprint and restoring the total hydrodynamics of the cylinder (ideal for stage cylinders, travel cylinders, or temporary conversions from twin-cylinder to single-cylinder).
Key Strengths:
-
Ultra-Flat Anti-Snag Profile: Unlike protruding hexagonal caps, this model features a smooth, flared head with an internal 8mm Allen socket. Once tightened, the cap remains almost flush with the valve body, eliminating the risk of lines, ropes, nets, or sheet metal snagging or leveraging on the valve.
-
Double Radial O-Ring Seal: As shown in the image, the insertion end is equipped with two NBR black O-rings of high mechanical resistance. The double-ring system guarantees a flawless and redundant watertight seal against very high operating pressures (up to 232 bar nominal).
-
Heavy-Duty Chrome-Plated Steel/Brass: Constructed with high-precision molded marine materials and covered with a thick protective chrome plating. It is resistant to salt corrosion, does not seize in the threads, and withstands continuous assembly and disassembly cycles.
Available Configurations:
The cap must be chosen based on the type of thread and the side of the valve you intend to work on to ensure the correct screwing direction:
- Version for Right (DX) Valves
- Version for Left (SX) Valves
