DISTAL END PROTECTIVE CAP FOR ENDOSCOPE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a distal end protective cap for an endoscope capable of individually providing a color index for white balance without raising a cost. SOLUTION: The distal end protective cap for the endoscope is formed by molding so as to be freely detachably attached to an insertion part distal end 1a in order to cover and protect the insertion part distal end 1a where an observation window 1b of the endoscope is arranged when keeping the endoscope. The composition of raw materials is prepared so that an image obtained through the observation window 1b at the insertion part distal end 1a of the endoscope in the state of being covered with the distal end protective cap 10 is suitable for adjusting the white balance.
