Common questions
What does this end cap do?
Part 2002831 supports the idler end of a motorized roller shade. The motor carries one end of the tube and this cap carries the other. Its 10mm shaft drops into the idler bracket and holds the tube as it turns.
Which roller tube does it fit?
Somfy builds it for 2 in (47mm) round roller tube. The shaft measures 10mm. The cap seats inside the open tube end, and the shaft retracts so the tube clears the bracket during install.
Why does the shaft collapse?
The collapsible shaft lets you set a finished roller between brackets without removing a bracket from the wall. Press the shaft in, drop the tube into place, then release it. Pulling the shade back out for service works the same way.
Which brackets does it pair with?
Use it with the LT50 bracket that carries your motor on the far end. The compatible parts on this page include the Somfy LT50 Universal Bracket with Spring Clip (9420631) and the Somfy LT50 Star Head Motor Bracket (9410651).
Do I need a crown and drive as well?
Yes, on the motor end. The crown and drive set couples the motor to the tube while this cap finishes the opposite end. Sets on this page include the Somfy LT50 DS78MM Crown/Drive Set (9012239) and the Somfy Octagonal LT50 70mm Crown and Drive Set (9012234).
Does it work with any Somfy roller motor?
It suits Somfy motorized roller systems that run 2 in (47mm) round tube. The cap sits on the idler side, away from the motor, so the motor choice does not change the fit. Match the crown and drive to your motor, then put this cap opposite it.
