Cap nuts

Cap Nuts Details

Acorn nuts, also known as Crown Hex Nuts, Blind Nuts, Cap Nuts, or Domed Cap Nuts, are utilized for both safety and appearance. Their crown caps protect and prevent stripping of screws and bolts so they can easily be removed and reused. Acorn nuts also add a finished look to any project and are commonly made with stainless steel or plated with brass or zinc. Low crown (standard) steel cap nuts are usually manufactured in two pieces, a hex nut, and an acorn-shaped top, with a zinc die-cast to form the finished nut. Stainless steel cap nuts are similar in design to the steel nut but made from an austenitic stainless alloy, and can be a one or two-piece style. Additional styles of acorn nuts include high crown and self-locking

An cap nut, also referred to as crown hex nut, blind nut, acorn nut, domed cap nut, or dome nut(UK), is a nut that has a domed end on one side, when used together with a threaded fastener with an external male thread, the domed end encloses the external thread, either to protect the thread or to protect the nearby objects from contact with the thread, in addition, the dome gives a more finished appearance

Acorn nuts are usually made of brass, steel, stainless steel, or nylon, they can be chrome plated and given a mirror finish

There are two types of acorn nuts, one is low, or the standard acorn nut, the other is the high acorn nut, the high acorn nut is wider and higher and will protect extra long studs, there are also self locking acorn nuts that have distorted threads in the hex area to create a tight friction fit to prevent the nut from vibrating loose

Frequently Asked Questions

Place the end of a measuring tape on one of the flat sides of the nut’s outer perimeter. Stretch the tape measure across the nut’s diameter to the flat-side directly across from the one you pulling from. If the nut is metric, count the number of lines on the tape measure to find the measurement.

A cap nut serves to protect the bolt threads underneath, but also provides a cleaner appearance, and may improve safety on certain joints and applications. When your application requires a smooth finish or all rough-edged fasteners and exposed threads must be covered, cap nuts provide an excellent solution.

These axle caps really aren’t designed to be reused, but they can be if they’re removed carefully. i.e., when you get them off, you might find you have to run to the store to get replacements anyway
