Review on 🚴 SHIMANO Derailleur Cable End Cap X100 (Silver, 1.2-mm): Premium Quality Bike Cable Accessory by Sean Young

These are simple aluminum tubes, closed at one end and open at the other, with a small protruding ring around the open end. Sure, you can buy cheaper no-name end caps, but they work very well, just as well on brake or shifter cables. The aluminum is soft enough to get a good grip on the end of the cable and the opening is large enough that you don't have to force the cable in. I like the fact that they are long enough to be crimped in two places for extra security. Because it's annoying when you lose one and the end of the cable frays. The only thing I would change is to make them available in a flip top bottle for ease of use in store. In fact, I put them in a small bottle for convenience. Some companies make anodized end caps in lighter colors, but silver ones are stylish and go with everything. I will order more when I start going out.
