Quick Caps vs Quick Cappz – Why Plumbers Trust the Original

Quick Caps vs Quick Cappz – Why Plumbers Trust the Original

When plumbers search online, they often type in quick caps, cappz, or even quik cap. But while the spelling might vary, the solution they’re really looking for is Quick Cappz – the original Australian-made camera drain cap. Invented in Melbourne in 2015 by a plumber who wanted to save time on CCTV drain inspections, Quick Cappz has become the trusted name across Australia.

So, what makes Quick Cappz different from the generic “quick caps” you see online? Let’s break it down.

What Are Quick Caps?

Quick caps, also known as inspection hole covers, drain caps, or downpipe inspection covers, are designed to create fast and reliable access points into drainage systems. By drilling a 35 mm hole, plumbers can insert a CCTV camera probe, identify blockages or structural issues, and then reseal the access point with a secure cover.

This process is now standard across the plumbing trade – but not all caps are created equal.

The Problem With Generic Inspection Covers

Many suppliers offer “drainage caps” or “inspection covers” that look similar to Quick Cappz. The reality? Most of them are:

  • Made from inferior plastics that can crack or degrade.

  • Not UV-stabilised, meaning they become brittle outdoors.

  • Poor-fitting, which risks leaks and callbacks.

  • Designed as cheap imitations, not trade-grade tools.

Plumbers know that time is money. Using low-quality caps can mean wasted hours, frustrated clients, and repeat issues.

Why Quick Cappz Is Different

Quick Cappz was the first product of its kind in Australia, designed by a plumber, for plumbers. Unlike generic “quick caps,” Quick Cappz offers:

  • Perfect 35 mm fit – made for hole saw access points.

  • UV-stabilised PVC – built to withstand the elements.

  • Ribbed design – ensures a watertight, professional seal.

  • Reusable construction – cost-effective and sustainable.

  • Choice of colours – black or white for a neat finish.

  • Flexible pack sizes – 50 or 100 caps, barcoded and shelf-ready.

That’s why Quick Cappz is now stocked at Reece and other plumbing suppliers, and trusted nationwide.
