A thread protector for use with a threaded end of a tubular member comprises a first end having an opening with an inside diameter, a second end, and an interior having an inside diameter that is substantially the same as the inside diameter of the opening. The interior is adapted to accept and surround the threaded end. The thread protector may be actuated between a locked and an unlocked configuration. When the thread protector is in the locked configuration, a portion of the inside diameter is reduced, as compared to when the thread protector is in the unlocked configuration, so as to securely mount the thread protector to the threaded end.

A plurality of nested shuttlecocks are stored inside a storage tube that has removable (e.g., screwable) caps covering both ends of the tube. There are two removable caps, one at each end of the tube. One cap is long enough to hold a perforated container (i.e., puck) that contains a humidifying material (e.g., water-containing Propylene glycol, or water-containing Polymer); while the other (opposing) cap is long-enough to contain a battery-powered, electronic hygrometer

A protective cap (1) is proposed for an end of an elongate member (6), such as a male connecting end of a pipe or tube. The cap (1) comprises a sheath of flexible, resilient (i.e. elastic) material (2) to cover part of the outer surface of the member (6) at an end of the member. The protective cap (1) can be applied to the end of the member by unfurling at least part of the sheath 3 from a gathered configuration, such as a rolled-up configuration. The protective cap (1) includes resilient ridges (8) extending inwardly from an insert member (2), and/or a chip at least partly within the cap.

Flexible safety cap for clamped holding of elongated objects is disclosed. The safety cap includes an elastically deformable packaging that is open on at least one end and consists of two opposing side walls, a bottom wall, a cover wall and an end wall, wherein multiple slots spaced a distance apart from one another are arranged at least in the cover wall and/or in the bottom wall, forming upper and/or lower strap-shaped or belt-shaped spring elements between them, the spring elements thus forming a clamping channel to hold an elongated object.

A thread protector comprises a hollow cylindrical body with a substantially closed end and a threaded inner annular wall extending from the substantially closed end. An annular ring extends inwardly from the substantially closed end. The annular ring has a sloped wall which is spaced-apart from and faces the threaded inner annular wall.
