    Steel Snap-In Nuts

    Snap these nuts—also known as cage nuts—into square holes in thin material. They’re often used to mount servers and other equipment in electronics racks. Threads float inside the cage, so you can fasten a bolt at a slight angle to align off-center parts. Mounting legs expand to lock these nuts in place.
    Install these nuts by hand, with pliers, or with a snap-in nut installation and removal tool.

    For excellent corrosion resistance in most environments, these nuts are made of 18-8 stainless steel. Snap them into square holes in thin material, and the mounting legs expand to lock them in place. Also known as cage nuts, the threads float inside the cage, so you can fasten a bolt at a slight angle to align off-center parts. These nuts are often used to mount servers and other equipment in electronics racks. They may be mildly magnetic.
    Install these nuts by hand, with pliers, or with a snap-in nut installation and removal tool.

    A flange distributes the load over a large area and reduces stress where the nut meets the material surface. Push them over threads to hold fasteners in light-duty holding applications. A zinc plating provides corrosion resistance in wet environments.
