Plastic Cap: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.27 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.05 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For plastic cap, the drivers are profile, closure type, decoration method, panel count — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
The biggest price drivers are material and fit: plain black plastic universal caps are the cheapest, while custom-printed, extended-skirt, TPMS-compatible, or branded caps move the price up. Small US-facing wholesale sellers and tire-supply distributors publish much higher finished-product prices, while import/China marketplace quotes show the lower factory FOB band for bulk. For a mid-range custom-printed run, realistic sourcing routes are Alibaba/Made-in-China factory quotes, or US trade suppliers that private-label and resell in smaller packs.
