Description
This battery vent cap provides peace of mind since it has a flame arrestor. Since all lead-acid batteries produce flammable gas, a flame arrestor is an important option. Hence if a nearby spark ignites the gas, the spark arrestor stops the flame from entering the battery where it could ignite the internal gas. You can learn more about this battery vent cap by reading this article on battery flame arrestors.
This battery cap will fit on all batteries that have a standard 1/4-turn bayonet vent opening. In addition, we have adapters that will let you mount this vent cap on most other batteries.
