Question 1

What are hex cap nuts?

Accepted Answer

Hex cap nuts, also known as acorn nuts, are hexagonal fasteners with a domed top. The dome covers and protects the exposed threaded end of a bolt or screw. They are used to prevent injury, damage to surrounding objects, or contamination of the threads.

Question 2

What materials are hex cap nuts made from?

Accepted Answer

Hex cap nuts are commonly made from stainless steel, brass, carbon steel, or nylon. Stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance, while brass offers good conductivity and an attractive finish. Nylon cap nuts are lightweight and used in non-conductive or less demanding applications.

Question 3

How do you select the right size hex cap nut?

Accepted Answer

Hex cap nuts are sized according to the thread diameter and pitch of the bolt or screw they accompany. Always ensure compatibility by checking the thread size and the bolt’s length to ensure the dome fully covers the exposed threads.
