  • Watertight Seal: Equipped with a dual O-ring sealing system that seals the top of the casing securely to create a watertight barrier, with watertight caps providing a reliable seal against contaminants from debris and surface water.

  • Vermin Proof: Includes screened air vents with stainless steel mesh to allow ventilation while helping block spiders and small animals from entering, keeping insects, rodents, and other pests out.

  • Durable Construction: Made from corrosion-resistant aluminum, a material widely used among different types of well caps for long-lasting performance in outdoor environments; unlike thermoplastic options, it is valued for corrosion resistance.

  • Conduit Connection: Features a 1-inch FNPT conduit connection to route electrical wiring, including submersible pump wiring, safely through the cap.

  • Grounding Hardware: Comes with a grounding terminal and bolt to ensure the well casing and pump system are properly grounded for electrical safety.

  • Stainless Steel Hardware: Utilizes stainless steel hardware for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.

  • Easy Installation: Designed to install quickly and allow easy access for maintenance; standard well caps are the simplest type to use, while this model adds more protection, and its four-bolt design uses tools for removal to help resist tampering.

The Boshart WTC-A05 well cap is a 5" aluminum cap designed to provide a watertight, vermin-proof seal for standard well casings. Two O-rings create a secure seal between the well casing, retainer ring, and cover, and the cap should fit tightly on the casing to help prevent contamination. A screened air vent helps maintain airflow while keeping pests out.

This cap also offers greater clearance for submersible pump cable, includes a grounding terminal with bolt, uses stainless steel hardware for corrosion resistance, and includes a well log inside the cap for recording installation data and specifications.

Expertly crafted from durable aluminum and engineered for outdoor and harsh environments, this well cap is designed to fit standard 5" OD well casings, making it ideal for residential and agricultural water wells when properly installed.
