Cage Nuts
Die CO Inc Co. cage nuts combine spring steel cages with multi-threaded nuts for secure fastening. Ideal for thin or soft materials, they withstand assembly vibrations and allow misalignment correction. Commonly used in appliances, HVAC systems, and telecom equipment racks, these nuts require no special tools for installation. Our ISO-certified production ensures consistent quality across 120+ standard sizes.
Nut Retainers
Nut retainers simplify component installation in cabinets and enclosures. Sliding over rail edges, they lock into pre-punched holes for quick assembly. Available in #10-32, #12-24, M5-0.8, and M6-1.0 sizes, these reusable fasteners provide reliable tension without welding. Their phosphate or zinc-coated finishes enhance durability in industrial applications.
U-Nuts
U-nuts securely join sheet metal panels without welding. Their spring steel design accommodates misalignments while maintaining strong hold. Available in sizes #4B to #14B and M3 to M6, these lightweight fasteners feature barbed or straight-leg options. Die CO Inc Co. offers multiple finishes including zinc electroplate and water-based coatings for corrosion resistance.
J-Nuts
J-nuts provide vibration-resistant fastening for sheet metal assemblies. The extruded retaining leg grips mounting holes securely while allowing minor realignment. Available in #6A to #10Z sizes, these fasteners install with one hand and require no special tools. Die CO Inc Co. offers phosphate, zinc, and painted finishes to suit various environmental conditions.
Flat Nuts
Flat nuts prevent loosening from vibration in space-constrained applications. Their self-locking spring steel design eliminates need for lock washers. Available in 25 standard sizes from #4A to #14A, these nuts feature rectangular or arched profiles. Die CO Inc Co. offers soluble oil, phosphate, and zinc-coated options for automotive, electronics, and industrial equipment uses.
