Cage Nuts

Vanya Fasteners offers Cage Nuts. A cage nut or caged nut (also called a captive or clip nut) consists of a (usually square) nut in a spring steel cage which wraps around the nut. The cage has two wings that when compressed allow the cage to be inserted into the square holes, for example, in the mounting rails of equipment racks. The square-hole cage nut can be used wherever a square hole can be punched. An older alternative type of captive-nut uses a spring clip that holds the nut and slides on the edge of a thin sheet.
