      5.0 Like it, better than others I've had!

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      This one has nice well defined grip ridges around the OS edge, makes for easy on and off, even in dim light. Well milled did not notice any burrs, or defects in the threads. Well made.

      5.0 Just what I needed.

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      I had a couple of t-mount camera lenses that had no end cap when I got them. Someone on cloudynights.com pointed me here. I ordered two and they fit perfectly and look nice. Now my lenses are protected while I store them.

      5.0 Blue Fireball T threaded cap

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      Typical of Blue Fireball products, the aluminum cap is well finished, cleanly threaded and way better than plastic caps for protecting expensive equipment. It is also reasonably priced for this quality.

      5.0 Very well machined

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      Makes a perfect end cap for cameras, scopes, and filter wheels. Threads mesh up perfectly and do not stick. Keeps dust out of sensitive telescopes much better than plastic end caps.

      Low price, extremely good value.

      5.0 End cap

      Pros:

      Cons:

      Comments:

      I lost the end cap in my telescope at night. This one is a T thread and seals much better than the original. I feel much better about keeping dirt and dust out of my Mak.
