Metallics CNN1224K – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size are the Metallics CNN1224K cage nuts?
They are 12-24 cage nuts. That is the thread a rack screw or machine screw has to match, so pair them with 12-24 screws, not 10-32 ones, which look close but will not thread.
2) Will 12-24 cage nuts work in a square-hole equipment rack or enclosure panel?
That is what cage nuts are for. The spring cage clips into a square punched hole in sheet metal and gives you a captive 12-24 thread where the panel itself is too thin to tap. The CNN1224K kit supplies 12-24, which is the common thread for racks and electrical enclosure mounting panels. Confirm your rack's hole size matches the cage body before clipping them in.
3) Does the CNN1224K come as a kit with screws included?
The CNN1224K is sold as a cage nut kit, so it ships as an assortment rather than loose single nuts. Order it by the Metallics part number CNN1224K when you want the 12-24 kit.
4) Can I use a cage nut instead of drilling and tapping an enclosure panel?
Yes, and that is the usual reason an electrician reaches for them. Clipping a 12-24 cage nut into an existing square hole gives you a reusable thread without tapping thin steel, and if a thread gets damaged you pull the nut and clip in a fresh one instead of repairing the panel.
5) What is the Metallics part number for the 12-24 cage nut kit?
CNN1224K is the Metallics number. One model covers the kit, so there is no finish or size choice to make when you order it.
