Sometimes the plastic caps on pill bottles are just the right diameter.  Check 
your medicine cabinet or the local pharmacy.

I have purchased Schneider push on caps for front and rear of some enlarger 
lenses at B&H. It's tricky estimating the size because the sizes are external 
lens barrel rather than defined screw-in sizes. And the size of cap depends on 
how tight a fit you want. I did have to try twice to get it right for one lens. 

If you are interested i can measure the diameter of the lens barrel and compare 
it to the push-on size.
