About Cage Nuts

Cage nuts clip into square holes in panels and rails, holding a captive nut behind the sheet. They're the standard fixing for 19 inch racks and cabinets, and they're also used anywhere you need a replaceable thread in a punched panel. The cage holds the nut with a little float so it can take up minor misalignment.

Fasteners for Data Centres and Telecoms

Server racks, network cabinets and telecoms equipment rely on standard fixings that go in quickly and come out cleanly. Cage nuts, standoffs and self clinching fasteners are everyday parts in this sector, and a reliable supply keeps builds and installs on schedule.

Choosing the Right Cage Nuts

Panel thickness, square hole size and thread size decide which cage nut you need.
