Product review (5 stars): Tine Caps Cover and protect
Tine Caps Cover and protect both older rack and your dishes from exposed metal and rust. Cheap solution to prolong older racks and a good idea for new ones to prevent wear that would cause damage wash items. Once the standard coating fails the entire tine prong will start rusting from the inside out leading to weak and eventually broken off tines. If I had known this could happen I would have put them on from day one.
