Product Description
A popular nut used in applications where aesthetics are important, giving an attractive look. The domed top also ensures a smooth snag-free finish protecting both the fixing and any foreign body that may come into contact. Also known as an Acorn Nut, a version incorporating a nylon insert is also available, manufactured to DIN 986.
