Terry B.
Lost the nut cover on one electrode of our dog’s anti-bark collar. We have that function turned off so he couldn’t be shocked, but we still wanted to replace the missing piece. The 1/4-inch Widget-supplied piece was a perfect replacement, just snug enough to stay — not too large or too small. We bought a dozen, thinking we’ll have some extras if one is lost again, and figuring sooner or later we’ll find another use for them in any event.

Awesome As Always!
This is the second time I've shopped WidgetCo for some tiny, hard to find replacement part, and they are awesome, have what I need, and are beyond inexpensive. I find myself wondering how they turn a profit dealing with such small orders. My many thanks!

As Always Widgetco Comes Through
Wanted a clean look for the installation of down riggers on my fishing boat. I knew that WidgetCo would have just what I needed to cover the exposed threads of the mounting bolts, making a cleaner install with less chance of getting scraped by exposed screws. Price and volume provided excellent choice. Shipping fast! Love this website.

1/4" Screw Thread Covers - Black
It was an unusual search in trying to find something protective to cover the base metal legs of a couple of candle holders to prevent scratching up any surfaces that the holders would sit upon. After checking Lowes, Menards, Home Depot or Ace Hardware, the size and color options were found to be everything but 1/4" Screw Thread Covers in black. Checking the internet found exactly what I wanted, and it could be purchased by the individual piece. For this, I am very thankful. The order arrived in just a couple of days from placing the order, which also surprised me. It was Five Star Service and then some from start to finish. Job well done!

Hard to find
I was happy to find this size. They are hard to find in small quantities. Worked well as end caps for my small metal table.
Paul M
Well worth the price
I used these to cove the end of 1/4" rods that I made to hang guitars on and the worked great. Did not have to glue because the fit snug. Will order more when time comes.

Thank you WIDGETCO! Exactly what I was looking for to soften the ends on a gate latch for a black wire fence. I looked in the big box home store and couldn't find anything like this. Your delivery was really fast too!

Charles D.
Fast service, great product, and good price!
The title says it all. I purchased the 1/4" rubber screw thread covers to cap off the ends of fiberglass, driveway markers that will be used to use to glue braces on guitar tops and backs on my go bar system. The service was fast and the price was very reasonable. The caps are soft enough for the task I plan to use them for, but not so soft that I will have to worry about them not lasting.
Kathrin R.
Perfect!
These caps were exactly what I needed and they arrived quickly. Thank you for your excellent service.

Dealing with this company was a very positive experience. Through pictures and emails we were able to determine exactly what I was looking for and get the right thing ordered. Very quick to respond to my inquiries and very quick to ship to you. I would recommend for anyone to purchase from this company.
Blane W
Perfect
This was exactly what I needed and was shocked I could shop for this online rather than in a catalogue. Doubly shocked how quickly I could get it shipped way out here in the outpost of Seattle (SE Alaska). This seemed like the type of product that would normally be a special order and take minimum 2-4 weeks for shipping and handling.
Gary P
Nice neat covers.
Very fast service, Looks & work great.

1/4" Screw Thread Protectors-Black
Perfect fitting soft rubber tips for 1/4" brass tubing shelf mounts installed in our all-glass curio display cases. The new brass tube mounts with these rubber tips installed are much stronger and more attractive than the previous plastic shelf mounts which often broke under the heavy glass shelf weight.

1/4" black thread covers
In order to get a head start on Hurricane shutter installation at our church, we decided to permanently install as many of the lower "L" rails as we could. The L rails had protruding 1/4" studs every 12", that held the bottom of the steel shutters with wing nuts. We used the thread covers to both protect the threads from damage and to keep the sharp stud ends from hurting people. They worked very well!

Lacks Uniformity
These perform and function satisfactorily. However, the uniformity in length is poor. The diameter seems fine but the length varies more than I find acceptable.

1/4" Thread/Rod Protectors
I need black for my project, local hardware stores had white in the 1/4" thread protectors, so these black fit the need. Used these for the ends of aluminum rod for under shelf hangers, and are great fit and desired look. These are a great price with very reasonable shipping cost.

1/4" Thread Protectors
Good product, price and service. Very satisfied with all aspects of the transaction.
Allen W.
1/4" Screw protectors
They fit fine and will do what is expected. Since I was paying for P&H anyway, I ordered 12 caps when I only needed 4. A good idea as a couple of the caps were not uniformly molded. Keep in mind, these are molded pieces of plastic; not rocket engine parts. Order a few more than you really need and you'll be satisfied with your purchase.
Charlie L
1/4" thread covers
The covers did exactly what they were made for...they fit nice and snug, and will never fall off. I'd recommend this product to anyone who needs covers to protect not only the threads of a bolt or screw, but to protect someone from being injured.
Cam M.
1/4 " tread protectors
Came earlier than expected. Length is important though – some length are a bit shorter than others. Overall good product and great service.<br> [From WIDGETCO: Thank you for the feedback. We will get our production team to monitor the lengths closely.]

Shipping Took A Week
I ordered these caps on a Thursday and paid to have them delivered in 2 -3 days, They was shipped the same day I ordered but when I checked the following Monday they was still showing in Houston TX. I didn't respond thinking they may show up Tuesday but when I checked Tuesday they was still in TX so I contacted the seller. The seller was quick to react on a refund or to ship me parts over night. I think the problem here is the post office in TX. I would recommend the seller following up on orders to make sure there parts get shipped and not overlooked. I'm going to give them a good grade since they did there part and the blame was on the post office. Caps once I received them was just like I ordered.<br> [From WIDGETCO: We have seen several recent shipments stall in Texas with USPS. We are monitoring it and expect it resolved soon. Very sorry for the delay.

1/4" Screw Thread Covers
I use these wonderful covers to prevent my sun glass lenses from being scratched by the arms of my glasses when I close them, a constant problem given the design of the glasses. It has proved to be a wonderful solution, although I have lost covers here and there. I was delighted to find these little covers.

1/4" thread caps
I originally purchased dust caps to cover pour spouts, but these caps varied a lot and the smaller and thinner ones split often. I decided to try these 1/4" thread caps hoping they would be more uniform in size and thickness. They are and they work perfectly as dust caps. I'm pleased with the product and the service.

Not just a thread protector!!!
Currently enjoying my second shipment from WidgetCo. I use them to cap mustard and ketchup bottles, they cover the ends of guitar tuners with sharp wires projecting and dress them up, as well as other things too numerous to mention. Thanks
