Cap Nuts

Conceal and protect protruding screw threads while fastening parts together. These nuts help prevent damage to surrounding materials and reduce injuries. Also known as acorn nuts, they have a smooth, rounded head that creates a finished look.

Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel

18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.

Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Our most corrosion-resistant cap nuts, these hold up in just about any environment. They won't degrade from exposure to weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Low-Strength Steel

Rated Grade 2, Class 6, or lower, these nuts are about half as strong as medium-strength steel nuts. They are suitable for light duty fastening applications, such as securing access panels. Use them with screws that have a similar strength rating to avoid stripping threads during installation.

Zinc-Plated Steel—A step up from plain steel, the zinc plating withstands occasional exposure to moisture.

Chrome-Plated Steel—The brightest, shiniest finish we offer, this plating has a mirror-like appearance that is often used in decorative applications. It resists salt water and chemicals better than zinc plating and is less likely to wear off.

High-Strength Steel

Rated Grade 8 or Class 10, these nuts are about 25% stronger than medium-strength steel nuts. They are commonly used to fasten components in valves, pumps, motors, and other high-stress applications. To avoid stripped threads during installation, make sure your screw has a comparable strength rating.

Threadlocker Cap Nuts

These nuts not only conceal and protect protruding screw threads, they also resist loosening from mild vibration. They have a nylon patch bonded to their threads that grips screws for a tighter hold than standard cap nuts. They’re reusable a handful of times, but the patch’s holding power decreases with each use. Also known as acorn nuts, they have a smooth, rounded head that creates a finished look.
