M24 - Cap Nuts DIN 917 - A4 Stainless Steel | Vital Parts

Our Cap Nuts, manufactured to DIN 917 standards, feature a smooth, domed top that protects exposed threads while providing a clean and professional finish. These nuts are designed with higher flats compared to DIN 1587 Acorn Nuts, making them easier to fasten and reducing the likelihood of socket or spanner slippage during assembly. Cap Nuts are widely chosen for their superior aesthetic appearance and enhanced functionality.

What are Cap Nuts?

Cap Nuts, also known as Domed Hex Nuts, are specially designed hex nuts with a closed-end dome that covers and protects exposed bolt threads. Unlike standard hex nuts, they provide additional safety by preventing injuries caused by sharp or protruding fasteners. The unique design also helps shield the threads from environmental contaminants such as dust, moisture, and debris, enhancing the longevity of the fastening system.

Compared to DIN 1587 Acorn Nuts, DIN 917 Cap Nuts feature higher flats, making them easier to tighten and providing a more secure grip for tools. These nuts are commonly used in applications where safety, durability, and visual appeal are crucial.
