Re: Locating a Part
Its not the best but it works and my team used a few on our competition bot last year. You take a piece of hose about 4-5 inches and fold over about 2 inches of it. Zip tie it down with a couple small size zip ties and you have a cap. We usually use these if you are prototyping or need a cap right this second and don't have time to make a hose fitting with a brass cap on it.
Another way that a sophomore on my team came up with is you put a rivet in the end of a hose and it will seal it. Please don't ever put a rivet in a piece of hose and call it a cap because you are just asking to make a bullet by doing so. (on a side note it held up to 150 psi from our shop compressor and we didn't have anything with a higher pressure to test it with)
