How To Use Cage Nuts?
Cage nuts are an essential component in any assembly or construction project that requires secure fastening of components to metal surfaces. These nuts are designed to be used with square holes, providing a reliable and durable solution for attaching hardware in a variety of applications.

As one of the leading fastener suppliers, XINCHI Fastener Co., LTD is glad to share these simple steps to use cage nuts effectively.
- Choose the appropriate size and type of cage nut for your project. Cage nuts come in various sizes and materials, so make sure you select the right one for your specific needs.
- Insert the cage nut into the square hole on the metal surface. The cage nut should fit snugly into the hole, with the tabs of the cage lining up with the edges of the hole.
- Place the hardware (such as a bolt or screw) through the hole in the component you want to attach to the metal surface. Make sure the hardware is aligned with the cage nut.
- Tighten the hardware into the cage nut using a wrench or screwdriver. As you tighten the hardware, the cage nut will compress and grip the metal surface, providing a secure anchor point for the component.
- Repeat the process for any additional components that need to be attached using cage nuts.
By following these simple steps, you can effectively use cage nuts to fasten components to metal surfaces in various applications securely. Cage nuts are a versatile and reliable fastening solution that can save you time and effort in your projects.
