CAGE NUTS M6 for 4U, 6U and 9U Racks

The CAGE NUTS M6 are accessories for rack-mounted installations. They are intended for use with 4U, 6U and 9U rack units, where they provide a secure M6 threaded point for fixing equipment to the cabinet frame.
Product overview
A cage nut is a small metal clip with a captive square nut. It is pressed into the square mounting hole of a rack rail, and an M6 screw is then passed through the equipment bracket and into the cage nut. Because the nut is held by the clip rather than by the rail itself, the fixing stays strong and can be removed and refitted many times.

Typical uses
Cage nuts are used whenever equipment needs a firm, adjustable fixing point in a cabinet. Common examples include:

- Fitting patch panels, cable management bars and shelves
- Securing UPS units and other heavy rack items
- Expanding or reconfiguring an existing cabinet
Fitting and compatibility
Before ordering, confirm that your rack uses square mounting holes compatible with M6 cage nuts, and that the equipment brackets also use M6 fixings. Fit the cage nuts in the rail holes at the correct height, then secure the device with matching M6 screws. Tighten each fixing evenly so that the equipment sits level and stable.

The CAGE NUTS M6 offer a practical, reusable way to fix equipment in a rack. They are a useful addition for installers, IT staff and anyone maintaining a server or network cabinet.
