What threads do these Acorn dome nuts have?

This range of acorn dome nuts are made from mild steel and are available with inch thread types such as BSF (British Standard Fine), BSW (British Standard Whitworth), or UNC (Unified National Coarse).

What are Acorn dome nuts used for?

Acorn dome nuts are commonly used in industrial applications where a decorative or finishing nut is required. They provide a secure and attractive method of fastening bolts or screws in place. Due to their dome-shaped design, these nuts offer additional protection by covering the exposed end of the fastener, preventing accidental injuries or damage. They also help in providing a finished appearance, especially when used in applications where aesthetics are valued.

How are acorn dome nuts used in jigs and fixtures?

Acorn nuts are commonly used in engineering jigs or fixtures in conjunction with studs to provide secure and reliable fastening. When working with jigs or fixtures, precision and stability are crucial. Acorn nuts, also known as cap nuts, are designed with a domed top that covers the exposed end of the stud, offering protection against damage and ensuring a smooth surface. This design minimizes the risk of accidents and maintains the integrity of the jig or fixture. The combination of acorn nuts and studs creates a secure and easily adjustable connection, making them an essential component for precise and efficient engineering processes.
