Cap Nuts

Cap Nuts, also known as a Blind Nut or a Crown Nut, is a nut that has a domed end on one side. The Domed Cap Nut is used to cover exposed threaded stud, rod and bolt ends with a dome-like cap. This offers protection and safety to the fastening assembly, while also creating a finished appearance to the exposed threaded end.

Our range is made up from Hex Cap Dome Nuts that feature a hexagonal nut shape with the dome or cap that encloses external threads. They are offered with or without a molded-in locking thread for applications which require torque for a more secure assembly.

Jam Nuts

Plastic jam nuts are essential fastening components used in a wide range of applications to secure threaded connections. These nuts are made from high-quality plastic material, known for its strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion and wear. The main characteristic of plastic jam nuts is their ability to provide a tight and secure grip on threaded rods, bolts, or screws, preventing them from loosening due to vibrations or other external forces. The plastic material used in their construction ensures lightweight and non-conductive properties, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

The benefits of plastic jam nuts are numerous. Firstly, they offer excellent resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for use in environments where exposure to moisture or chemicals may occur. Additionally, plastic jam nuts are non-magnetic and non-conductive, making them suitable - for applications where electrical conductivity is a concern. The lightweight nature of these nuts makes them easy to handle and install, reducing both time and effort required for fastening operations. Moreover, plastic jam nuts are cost-effective alternatives to metal nuts, providing similar performance at a lower price point.
