Overview
Dust Cap 36 mm Inner Diameter Fitting Cover for Telescope Eyepiece and Lens Depth 7 mm Black Plastic Optical Protection

The dust cap with inner diameter of 36 mm is a simple and practical accessory for anyone working with optics. It fits onto the eyepiece of a telescope, the lens of a camera, or any other cylindrical part of an optical device with an outer diameter of 36 mm, protecting the front lens from dust and dirt. The cap is made from black plastic, making it lightweight and easy to handle. It fits conveniently in an accessory bag, in the case with the telescope, or in a drawer where eyepieces and lenses are stored. Thanks to its simple design without springs and latches, it can be put on and taken off in a single motion.

The cap has the shape of a low cylinder with a flat lid and ribbed edge. The inner depth of 7 mm allows the cap to sit on the edge of the eyepiece or lens, covering the entire front surface. The ribbing around the edge facilitates gripping, so you can easily remove the cap even in the dark while observing the night sky. The dimension of 36 mm corresponds to the inner diameter of the cap, so make sure to measure the outer diameter of the part you wish to fit it onto before selecting. If you have multiple eyepieces or lenses with different diameters, you can combine caps in the required sizes.

The cap is useful wherever optics have a cylindrical end with an outer diameter of 36 mm. Typically, this includes eyepieces of astronomical telescopes that are stored in a case after observation, but also smaller lenses or various optical attachments. If you have multiple eyepieces in your case, you will appreciate that each can have its own cap, preventing scratches or dust accumulation during transport. The cap is thin-walled, so an eyepiece with the cap on takes up only slightly more space in the foam padding of the case than without it. Before fitting, just check that the outer diameter of the optics matches the size of the cap.

Simply wipe the cap occasionally with a dry or slightly damp cloth to prevent dust from transferring onto the optics. Before fitting, ensure that the lens surface is clean and dry. When not in use, store the cap in a case or pocket of the bag to avoid losing it and to prevent it from gathering dirt. Do not expose the plastic to high temperatures for prolonged periods, such as on a car dashboard in summer.

The 36 mm plastic cap is a simple way to protect eyepieces and lenses that you are not currently using. It is suitable for astronomers, photographers, and anyone who stores optics in a case or bag. It fits without tools and thanks to the ribbed edge, it is easy to hold in your fingers. Choose the size 36 mm according to the outer diameter of your device and keep your optics covered during storage and transport.
