    High-Profile Cap Nuts
    3D CAD models available

    Three times the thread depth of standard cap nuts, these cover and protect extra-long, protruding screws, so you don't have to cut them when fastening parts together. They 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.

    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.

    High-Profile Sanitary Cap Nuts
    3D CAD models available

    Cover and protect 4" of exposed threads in food plants and other sanitary environments with these extra-long cap nuts. They are free of crevices where bacteria can grow and have a silicone seal on the base to keep liquid, debris, and other contaminants off the threads. The seal is made with metal and chemical additives, so you can find it with a metal detector or X-ray machine if it falls into your line. Nuts have a smooth, rounded head to create a finished look.
