About this product

Dome (Cap) Nut explained

Dome nuts finish a bolt end with a closed cap that covers the thread, protecting people from sharp edges and the thread from damage. We stock DIN 1587 in Umm Al Quwain from M3 to M30 in stainless A2 / A4, zinc-plated steel and brass.

A dome nut (cap nut, acorn nut) is a hex nut with a domed closed end. It is used on exposed bolt ends in handrails, playground equipment, furniture, vehicle bodies and architectural fixings, both for safety and for a clean finish. Because the cap is closed, the bolt must not project beyond the nut thread depth — length is critical. High (DIN 1587) and low (DIN 917) forms are available.

Applications

  • Handrails, balustrades and glass fixings
  • Playground and public furniture
  • Bus, truck and trailer bodies
  • Signage, façade and canopy fixings
  • Machine guards and covers
  • Marine and pool fittings (A4)

Frequently asked

Dome (Cap) Nut — FAQ

How much thread can project into a dome nut?

Roughly one bolt diameter — check the DIN 1587 depth table; if the bolt is too long the cap will not tighten down.

Are dome nuts load-bearing?

They are standard nuts with a cap and carry the same load as the equivalent hex nut, but the cap is not a locking device.

Do you stock A4 stainless dome nuts?

Yes, M4 to M20 in A4 for coastal and pool applications.
