Title: Frame End Caps For SSP
Post by: captjoe06 on August 09, 2016, 06:08:04 AM
I'm pretty sure but not positive that these are what I want (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HBOGF7Y?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B01HBOGF7Y&linkCode=xm2&tag=gmap-20), can anyone confirm?

1 1/4" Square furniture tip was the search that brought them up,  couldn't locate them using the search term Square Tube End caps.

I can't confirm what you found will work, but I'm sure these will (http://www.ereplacementparts.com/tubing-plug-black-p-1475739.html).

I called but they couldn't guarantee I'd have it in time for a Sunday Sale in which I want them for the buyer.  There's a chance even with expidited shipping that they'd be here on Monday.

Thanks though

My local Ace Hardware had some that worked perfectly.

Ya, I thought I saw them at Ace as well but they didn't have them yesterday.

I think the lower horizontal square tubing on the SSP frame is one inch but the top tubing that is adjacent to the table is larger.

Should all be the same 1inch tubing. They have the caps at my local HDR store if you need me to pick up a few.

No, the top frame is 1.25" tubing, as are the vertical supports. Only the bottom frame is 1" tubing.

@captjoe06 - at my Ace, the end caps were in those sliding plastic bins with a bunch of other oddball stuff, not hanging on racks.

I didn't look there,  thanks. The person who was helping me brought me over to where the round tubing caps were.  I ordered the ones from the link I had on Amazon.  I'll let y'all know how I make out

Nice!  Do you have a link for the ones you got from Amazon?  Oops, I see it now in your first post!   ;)
