How do M6 Cage Nut Kits work?
M6 Cage nuts are self-retaining fasteners that are made of spring steel. They have two wings compressed when the cage nut is inserted into a square hole in the rack. When the wings are released, they expand and securely hold the nut. The nut can then be used to attach a screw to the equipment.
