Where to buy 1/2 in pipe end caps? (picture)

Hi there

anyone know where to buy these PVC end caps? They are on the drain lines of our fresh water tank and water lines. They are leaking...

I bought 1/2 in PVC end caps at a home improvement store, but they are leaking as well (they don't have the rubber plug inside)

Thanks!

Go buy a couple 1/2" PVC valves...1/4 turn, put some pipe tape on the threads where the caps came off, screw the valves on and be done. That was the first thing I did to our 2018, 10 minutes after I parked it in the driveway.

you may be able to replace the seal piece at Lowe's, ... but if not, these are what I replaced that cap with, ... comes in both red and blue(both links below), ... no more unscrewing that cap and then losing it, ...

Some hardware stores carry fittings like that, but many RV dealership stores have a better selections

I got replacement seals at a local RV dealer for free. In the end, I ended up putting PVC ball valves on just for the convenience.
