Flow-RitePart BD-00280-25Battery Watering SystemFlow-Rite BD-00280-25 Red Swivel Tee End Cap

Cap off unused tee ports cleanly and reliably. The BD-00280-25 is the correct red swivel tee end cap for Flow-Rite Pro-Fill, Qwik-Fill, and Millennium Evo single-point battery watering systems -- keeping your system sealed and leak-free at every unused connection point.

Keep Your Battery Watering System Tight at Every Port

Flow-Rite single-point battery watering systems use a network of tee fittings to route water from a single fill point to every cell in your battery bank. When a tee port is not connected to another component -- at the start or end of a run, or where a line terminates -- it needs a properly fitted end cap to prevent leaks, contamination, and pressure loss during filling.

The BD-00280-25 swivel tee end cap is the OEM-correct replacement and spare part for this purpose. Its swivel design allows the cap to rotate freely on the tee fitting, making it easy to install even in tight battery compartments where a fixed cap would be awkward to seat. The red color matches the standard Flow-Rite color coding used across Pro-Fill, Qwik-Fill, and Millennium Evo systems.

Swivel Design

Rotates freely on the tee for easy installation in cramped battery bays and tight cable runs.

OEM Color Match

Red color matches Flow-Rite standard color coding across Pro-Fill, Qwik-Fill, and Millennium Evo systems.

Leak-Free Seal

Positive snap-fit retention seals unused tee ports against leaks and contamination during watering.

Broad Compatibility

Works with all current Flow-Rite swivel tee fittings used in 6V and 12V flooded lead-acid battery banks.

Where This Part Is Used

In a battery watering system, tee fittings branch the fill line from one battery cell to the next. At the last cell in a row -- or wherever a branch is not needed -- the open port on that tee must be capped. The BD-00280-25 is that cap. Without it, the system cannot hold pressure and will leak during filling.

Compatible System Families

  • Flow-Rite Pro-Fill -- manual single-point battery watering systems
  • Flow-Rite Qwik-Fill -- gravity-fed and hand-pump single-point systems
  • Flow-Rite Millennium Evo -- advanced single-point systems with improved valve design
  • Compatible with 6-volt and 12-volt flooded lead-acid (wet cell) battery configurations
  • Common in golf cart, RV house battery, forklift, and solar storage battery banks

Installation Note

This end cap is designed specifically for Flow-Rite swivel tee fittings. It is not a universal cap and will not correctly seal other brands' tee fittings or standard barbed fittings. If you are unsure which tee fitting is in your system, compare the fitting body to Flow-Rite's BD-series tee components.

Maintenance Tips

  • Inspect end caps each time you service your battery watering system -- look for cracking, discoloration, or a loose fit that could allow leaks.
  • Keep a spare BD-00280-25 on hand if you are a full-timer or rely heavily on a large battery bank; a failed end cap can allow electrolyte to escape during filling.
  • When replacing, ensure the tee port is clean and dry before snapping the new cap into place.

Important Information

  • This cap is designed exclusively for Flow-Rite BD-series swivel tee fittings -- do not attempt to use it on other brands or fitting styles.
  • An improperly seated or missing end cap will cause the watering system to lose pressure during filling, potentially resulting in electrolyte spillage or uneven cell filling.
  • This part is sold individually (quantity 1). Order the number of caps required for your specific installation.
  • For use with flooded lead-acid batteries only -- not intended for AGM, gel, or lithium battery types, which do not use single-point watering systems.
  • Always disconnect chargers and follow battery safety precautions (eye protection, ventilation) when servicing any battery watering system.
