Cage nuts

Cage nuts are fastening elements that consist of a square nut enclosed in a spring steel cage, allowing slight movement for easier installation. They are commonly used in server and network cabinets, industrial machinery, the automotive sector, and metal enclosures, providing secure yet removable fastening. The standards defining them include DIN 267-28 for technical requirements, EN 60715 for modular systems, ISO 898-2 for mechanical properties, and EIA-310-D for server racks. Well-known manufacturers like Ganter, Norelem and Kipp, along with other leading manufacturers, offer their 3D CAD models on 3Dfindit, including cage nuts.
