A protection seal cap for enclosing an end portion of a fastener which extends from a structure, which includes a cap member, which includes a sidewall that defines an interior space within the cap member. The sidewall forms a continuous wall member positioned within the cap member. The continuous wall member defines an opening providing access to the interior space. The continuous wall member is configured to create an interference compression fit between the end portion of the fastener and the continuous wall member.
