Think you know how to cap a steel post? Most DIYers miss the most critical step for longevity. In this video, we demonstrate the precision required when working with galvanized box tubing. Watch as the metal saw creates a clean, level cut, followed by the seamless installation of a protective steel cap. While it looks simple, the magic is in the fit.
Using a high-quality cold-cut saw prevents the zinc coating from overheating, which is vital for maintaining the post's rust resistance. By hammering the cap into place with a standard framing hammer, you create a friction-fit seal that keeps moisture out of the hollow core. If you don't seat these correctly, water trapped inside can lead to internal oxidation and eventual structural failure. This method is the industry standard for professional fencing and outdoor structures.
Whether you're a seasoned fabricator or a weekend warrior, mastering these small finishing touches separates the pros from the amateurs.
