Explore Our Durable Piling Caps
Piling caps are essential for protecting your marine pilings from internal rot and external elements. Our caps are available in a variety of configurations to suit both aesthetic preferences and functional requirements:
- Available in black or white to match your dock design.
- Choose from flat or cone shapes, the latter helping to deter birds.
- Designed for both round and square pilings.
- Offered in more than 25 sizes, ranging in half-inch increments starting from 5.5 inches.
Our piling caps are crafted from high-quality materials:
- The most popular sizes, from 7 inches to 13 inches, are made from injection molded, UV inhibited polypropylene.
- Larger sizes of cone caps and all flat caps are thermoformed from a superior grade of heavy-duty low-density polyethylene (LDPE), ensuring longevity and durability.
Designed to extend the life of your marine infrastructure, our piling caps offer:
