This is a universal end cap for 4040 T-slot aluminum extrusion profiles, designed to fit most common systems (Bosch, Item, Motedis, OpenBuilds, etc.).
The cap provides a clean, professional finish for open profile ends while protecting against dust and debris.
It features rounded outer corners to match the natural contour of the extrusion, giving your frame a more polished look.
The fit is friction-based, ensuring secure placement without glue or screws.
Because internal profile geometries can vary slightly between manufacturers, you may need to tune tolerances (±0.1–0.2 mm) in your slicer for an optimal fit.
