dust cap

most aircraft tyre/wheel "dust caps" when fitted by the manufacturer have a hexagonal head and a part number to be found in the I.P.C. A torque figure is stated in the maintanance/overhaul manual, that is why they are a pressure seal and not a dust cap. the inflation/deflation valve is just that, a valve.
