Dome Nuts
Dome Nuts (Acorn / Cap Nuts)
Our Dome Nuts, commonly known as Acorn Nuts or Cap Nuts, feature a domed top that covers the exposed threaded end of a bolt. This design serves a dual purpose: it prevents injury by covering sharp threads (snag-free safety) and provides a polished, decorative finish to the assembly. We offer all major forms including the standard High Crown for maximum thread clearance and the Low Crown for tight spaces, widely used in architectural metalwork, furniture, and automotive customization.
