I started sealing dry filament spools with a vacuum sealer and noticed that it stretches a divot in the center so I made a few caps to cover the hole. You can see the difference in the phone: near spool has a cap, far spool doesn't. I saw something similar a few years ago, but couldn't find it again so I made my own.
The 50mm cap works for most of my filament, but at least a few spools had larger diameter hole and needed a 60mm cap (I think they were Sunlu PETG?) And obviously, before sealing the spool you need to print two caps: one for both sides.
Print using plain PLA, default settings, oriented with outer face down.
It honestly took about 5 minutes in FreeCAD to make these, but if you want a different diameter I'm happy to upload something else for you.
Incidentally, the outer diameter of spool walls tend to get crushed inward by vacuuming sealing, particularly one the filament level is down and there's nothing to support the wall. If you're having that problem there are some anti-crush support solutions on Printables and elsewhere. I'm working on my own version.
