Cage Nut
A cage nut is a specialized fastening component consisting of a metal nut encased in a flexible cage. Its design allows for quick and easy installation in holes, particularly in thin-walled sheets. Cage nuts are commonly used in applications where traditional nuts cannot be used due to limited access on the opposite side of the connection.
Application:
Cage nuts are widely used in:
-
Server Racks: For mounting servers and other network equipment in 19-inch racks, where cage nuts provide ease of installation and reliable fastening.
-
Electrical Industry: In mounting systems where quick fastening of components, such as control panels or distribution boxes, is required.
-
Automotive Industry: For attaching body panels and other components where access to the reverse side of the connection is limited.
Benefits:
-
Easy Installation: The cage allows for quick placement of the nut in the hole, eliminating the need for access to both sides of the mounted component.
-
Use in Thin Materials: Ideal for use in thin sheets and profiles where traditional nuts are not suitable.
-
Connection Stability: The metal cage holds the nut in place during installation, ensuring a strong and reliable connection.
