Cage Nut Stainless Black

The cage has two wings that compress to allow the cage to be inserted into a square hole punched in an equipment assembly or sheet metal.

When the wings are released they hold the nut in position behind the hole. The square nut fits loosely within the cage to allow for slight alignment adjustments. 

Cage Material: A2 Stainless + Black Oxide (Dull)

Nut Material: A2 Stainless + Black Oxide (Dull)

Material: Stainless Steel 

Suitable for damp locations
Corrosion resistant


Finish: Black Oxide  
- Abrasion resistant, does not peel, chip or rub off 
- Reduces friction, prevents galling 
- Does not change the strength of the stainless steel 
- Practically no dimensional change to base fastener 
- The spray applied during the coating process wears off over time, revealing an attractive matte black finish 

The black oxide coating per MIL-DTL-13924, Class 4 on 300 series corrosion resistant steel meets 96 hours of resistance in a 5% salt spray (fog) test in accordance with ASTM B117. We recommend using stainless steel installation tools to prevent extraneous rust.

Also known as a caged nut, captive nut or clip nut. A cage nut is a fastener comprised of a spring steel cage which wraps around a square nut.
