Acorn Nuts
American Bolt Corporation supplies acorn nuts, also known as cap nuts, used in industrial, mechanical, and commercial applications where both thread protection and finished appearance are desired. Acorn nuts provide a domed closure over threaded fasteners to protect exposed threads, improve safety, and enhance the look of assemblies.
These nuts are commonly used in exposed fastener locations where a smooth, finished surface is preferred or where thread protection is important.
What Is an Acorn Nut?
An acorn nut is a type of hex nut with a domed top (cap) that covers the end of the bolt or threaded stud. The cap portion protects the threaded fastener from damage and corrosion while eliminating sharp or protruding threads that could cause injury or snagging. Acorn nuts are useful where both function and aesthetics matter.
