Wife was after me to find some of these..saw them in another place, and noticed they might look good in our dishwasher, which had a few tips missing. I ordered them and they came promptly. I installed them with epoxy, and the install took only minutes. Good product, cheap price.

I was a bit hesitate to buy these but it was more reasonable than a new rack. They have gone through several dish washing cycles now and are still intact. I followed the instructions exactly and they work great.

Caps do not stay on well, even with the sealant. Needs a stronger adhesive to keep the caps on.

Well this product pretty much did what I needed it to do. My dishwasher rack was rusting and getting stains on my dishes. This item was very easy to use and covered up the rust so that it no longer stains my dishes. Good product

The caps are simple and work as advertised. I found that, for severely rusted rack ends, I needed to trim off about a quarter inch of the swollen, rusted end with a pair of heavy nippers prior to installing the caps. I also put a small dab of clear epoxy (available at any hardware store) inside each cap with a toothpick prior to installing them. It’s been a couple months now, and the caps have all stayed in place. The result is that I’ve extended the life of the dishwasher rack and, so far, inhibited the formation of more rust at the rack ends.
