Abstract: Quick release pipe end caps secure materials enclosed by pipes. This is accomplished by capping the ends of the storage pipe with quick release pipe end caps. Contractors frequently transport a variety of materials to job sites using a large pipe as a storage container. Quick release pipe end caps have a cap which covers the end of a pipe and a quick release mechanism which removably secures the cap to the pipe without requiring the use of tools. The quick release mechanism consists of a band having slots which is enclosed by a latching mechanism. The cams on the end of a locking lever engage with the slots in the band and tighten the band about the cap.
