Osculati A2 AISI 304 Stainless Steel Domed Cap Hexagon Nuts DIN 1587 / UNI 5721
Osculati domed cap hexagon nuts are manufactured from A2 (AISI 304) stainless steel and are listed according to DIN 1587 / UNI 5721. These closed-end nuts combine a standard hexagonal fastening body with a rounded dome that covers the end of the mating threaded fastener.
The domed cap provides a smooth, finished appearance and conceals the exposed end of a bolt, machine screw or threaded rod. This design is useful for visible fastening points where both mechanical attachment and appearance are important.
The six-sided exterior allows installation and removal using a matching wrench or socket. The internal metric thread engages with compatible threaded fasteners, while the closed cap requires sufficient internal clearance for the projecting threaded end.
Unlike standard DIN 934 hexagon nuts, DIN 1587 cap nuts feature an enclosed end. They are not designed to provide the locking function of DIN 982 self-locking nuts, and the closed cap does not by itself establish a watertight seal.
A2 (AISI 304) stainless steel offers corrosion resistance for general indoor, outdoor and suitable marine applications. For continuous saltwater exposure or environments with high chloride concentrations, the suitability of this stainless steel grade should be assessed.
The range includes eight nominal metric thread sizes: M4, M5, M6, M8, M10, M12, M14 and M16. Each variant has an individual Osculati part number and is supplied in a cardboard box containing 5, 10 or 25 nuts.
