Item Description
- A cage nut houses a standard nut in a cage with a spring. The cage has two wings that can be pinched together to allow the cage nut to be inserted into a square hole. The wings are then released to hold the cage nut in place. They can be inserted (in square holes) either with the flaps horizontal or vertical. It is easier to install and remove them using a purposed designedcage nut tool found online, if you only have a few to do you can use a screwdriver
- Main Applications: Server rack cabinets, switchboards and automotive
- Panel Range: Cage nuts are available in different grip ranges to suit various material thicknesses. To select the right size, measure the thickness of material then choose the nut that falls within the range. The range is in the title and on the specification table of this listing
- Material / Coating: Stainless Steel A2-70 G304 is the most popular grade of stainless steel. It is aesthetically pleasing to the eye and very practical because of its excellent corrosion protection in most environments
- Thread Pitch (Metric): is the distance between the peaks of two threads along a screw, bolt, nut or fastener expressed in millimetres (mm). Used when referring to Metric parts. For example, a thread pitch of 1.50mm means that the distance between one thread and the next is 1.50mm
