Masonry Concrete Blocks Cap, 12 x 16in (10 Sets, 2 Per Set)
The Concrete Block Cap is a top quality, durable product designed to give you a solid top surface for concrete blocks, walls and other masonry structures. Made from a tough plastic sheeting and fibrous composite this block cap is perfect for making cement walls, steps, garden edging and to cover the top of a cinder block wall for better load distribution. Its robust construction means long life performance so its a great choice for residential and commercial projects. This is suitable for all residential and commercial projects so durability and stability.
Product Features: Caps
The Concrete Block Cap has a unique combination of tough plastic sheeting and fibrous composite providing extra strength and durability. The fibrous composite flows into the irregularities of the concrete masonry unit (CMU) so the load is distributed uniformly, no damage to the cell stems and overall stability of the structure. This design not only enhances the structural integrity of the concrete masonry units but also protects the testing equipment. The block cap is available in various sizes to fit different design styles and project requirements so its a versatile solution for all masonry applications. This versatility makes it a great choice for both residential and commercial projects and performs well in all conditions.
The Concrete Block Cap is easy to install and compatible with all concrete blocks and walls. It can be used with different CMU sizes and types so its a great solution for all projects. The block cap is also compatible with all mortar types and can be installed with standard masonry techniques. This makes installation time and cost reduced so you can finish your project fast without compromising on quality and performance.
The Concrete Block Cap is available at various online retailers and hardware stores. You can also find it at specialty masonry suppliers and distributors. For more information on where to buy please visit our website or contact our customer service team. Our knowledgeable staff is ready to help you find the right product for your needs so you have the right tools for your masonry projects.
Masonry Block Caps provides a unique unbonded capping method for compressive strength testing of concrete masonry units. A cost effective alternative to sulfur capping minimizes time, labor, expense and equipment such as ladles and melting pots. A fibrous composite is laminated to the tough plastic sheeting providing rigidity, proper load distribution and protection of the machine platens. The composite material flows during compression to fill the irregularities in the concrete masonry unit, distributing test loads uniformly.
This method is comparable in accuracy to capping with hydrocal gypsum but not noted in the ASTM C140 method. Block Caps are ideal for internal QC testing applications and eliminates the need for mixing, cutting or measuring. Each carton contains ten sets (2 per set) of single-use Masonry Block Caps.

Applications and Uses
Concrete blocks, including caps, are used in a wide range of construction projects from building foundations to building walls and other structures. They are versatile and can be used in many applications, that’s why they are a great choice for many types of work. For example these blocks are perfect for making cement walls, steps and garden edging and for use in PV (solar) ballast systems. One of the main uses of concrete block caps is to cap the top of a cinder block wall. This provides a smooth and level surface and adds to the overall durability of the structure. Although heavy, concrete blocks are manageable for construction and are strong so they are used for both load bearing and non load bearing walls.
In addition to being used standalone, concrete blocks are often used with other materials like mortar and rebar to create strong and long lasting structures. This combination ensures the structure is sturdy and can withstand different environmental conditions.
Concrete block caps are highly valued in construction projects where strength, durability, and affordability is key. For projects requiring additional safety measures, such as impalement protection, T Post Caps are an excellent choice. They are a great option for builders and contractors looking for reliable materials that can meet both residential and commercial projects.
The versatility of concrete blocks and caps is evident in their use in residential, commercial and industrial construction. They are a reliable and efficient solution for all building and structural needs. By using these materials construction professionals can ensure their work is of high quality, durable and weathering, fire, moisture and pest resistant.
Whether its a small project or a big construction, concrete blocks and caps are the materials. They offer many benefits that makes them ideal for many applications and uses, so the final construction is strong and long lasting.
