Cage Nut

A Cage Nut is a specialized fastening component consisting of a square or rectangular nut enclosed within a spring steel cage. It is designed to be clipped into square holes in metal panels, racks, cabinets, and enclosures, providing a secure threaded mounting point where conventional nuts cannot be easily installed.

Manufactured from high-quality steel, stainless steel, or zinc-plated materials, Cage Nuts offer excellent strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. The spring steel cage allows easy insertion and removal while keeping the nut securely positioned within the mounting hole. This design also provides slight movement for alignment, making equipment installation faster and more convenient.

Cage Nuts are widely used in server racks, data centers, electrical panels, telecommunications equipment, industrial cabinets, and networking infrastructure where reliable and removable fastening is required.
