Piling Caps

Protect Your Dock with Durable Piling Caps — Built for Long-Lasting Marine Protection

Piling caps are essential for maintaining the integrity and appearance of your dock pilings. At The Outdoor Warehouse, we offer high-quality marine piling caps designed to prevent water intrusion, UV degradation, and bird nesting — all of which can shorten the lifespan of your dock structure. Made from durable plastic, rubber, or metal, these caps form a protective barrier against the harsh marine environment, ensuring your dock stays strong and secure year-round.

Available in multiple styles and diameters, our flat, conical, and domed piling caps deliver reliable protection and a clean, finished look for any waterfront setup.

Why Use Piling Caps?

  • Moisture Protection: Seals the top of pilings to prevent rot, cracking, and splitting.
  • UV Resistance: Blocks damaging sunlight that causes surface degradation.
  • Pest Control: Prevents birds from nesting or damaging exposed piling tops.
  • Enhanced Aesthetics: Gives docks and marinas a finished, professional appearance.

Piling Cap Styles & Materials

Type Material Key Features
Flat Cap Plastic or Rubber Modern look, easy to install, great for residential docks
Conical Cap Plastic or Metal Deflects water and discourages birds from perching
Domed Cap Polymer or Stainless Steel Stylish finish, durable, excellent weather resistance

How to Choose the Right Piling Cap

To ensure a perfect fit and lasting protection, consider these factors when choosing your marine piling caps:

  • Piling Diameter: Measure the top of your pilings to the nearest 1/8" for accurate sizing.
  • Material: Plastic for cost-effective UV resistance, metal for durability, and rubber for flexibility.
  • Shape: Conical caps deflect rainwater and discourage wildlife; flat caps offer a sleek finish.
  • Color: Black for UV resistance, white for reflective cooling in hot climates.

Replace piling caps as they age or crack to maintain full protection against water and debris intrusion.

Pro Tip

Combine your piling caps with dock lines and marine cleats for a complete, professional dock outfitting setup.
