Variations Of Nut Caps

Domed Nut & Bolt Caps

our nut & bolt caps are an excellent choice for the covering and protection of exposed nuts or bolts. Also known as plastic nut covers or even plastic bolt covers, these caps have a domed hex head which allows them to be screwed onto the head of a nut or bolt to provide instant covering and protection benefits, preventing the bolt from being tampered with. Hex nut covers are a widely used cost effective solution inside a multitude of industries, being a number one solution for nut and bolt protection. These are a form of plastic fixings or plastic panel fixings that is able to easily be placed over the nut head, providing protection and many other benefits.

Locking Nut Caps

These 'locking' versions of the standard Plastic Nut Covers are suggested for many uses where tampering would be an issue, preventing the bolts or nuts from becoming ineffective and potentially causing damage. It is for this reason that they are so commonly used with playgrounds or school equipment, meeting and adhering to all health and safety guidelines which frequently arise.
