Kardon Caps / Pile Caps

Kardon Kaps (also known as bird cones) are used as covers for the tops of marine piles to keep rain water out of timber piles, as a finishing detail on concrete and steel piles and to deter birds from landing on pile tops.

They are rotationally moulded in UV resistant polyethylene plastic. Kardon Kaps are tough and reliable and have 4 mm nominal wall thickness.

These Kaps, are mostly supplied in solid white, but are also available in a range of colours, including blue, red, green, orange, black or other shades. Contacts us if you have a specific colour request.
