Design your own end cap for open pipes/tubes e.g. broom handles or curtain rods. Change in the attached Fusion file the parameters of outside and inside diameters to define the cap dimension. Also change the parameter of cap thickness in case if you like to get a more rugged profile.

The function is based on a wedge clamp that is tightened by a screw. M3 cylinder screws with a length of at least 15 mm are best suited, but longer threads are also no problem.

No supports or brims are necessary. Print with layer 0.2mm. My prints were down by 30% filling in PETG with nice results. But PLA should work as well.
