Benefits of Bowes Manufacturing Cap Nut Fasteners
  • Six contact points on the cap nut fastener to bite hard on the shaft circumference holding it under vibration resistant live spring tension.
  • Easy to install push on fastener design.
  • Cap nuts are available in a wide range of sizes and designs.
embossed, standard and deep draw cap nut styles
The wide diameter of the cap nut acts as a spanner washer, distributing the holding power of the fastener over a wide area around the stud. Cap nut fasteners have six point contact (available for most stud diameters) on the shaft circumference, assuring maximum holding power and resistance to loosening by vibration. Within the styled aluminum cap is a tempered spring steel or optional stainless steel insert which grips the shaft or stud. The single O.D. design allows the fastest possible assembly with minimum part handling and stock inventory. Cotter pins, washers, threading and drilling operations are eliminated.
