Palnut One-Piece Decorative Top Hats
Palnut Push-On Top Hats are one piece spring steel fasteners that hide axel, shaft, rod or stud ends with a decorative metal top hat. Push-On Top Hats take a positive “bite” on metal, plastic or wood, so they grip securely even on very smooth, hard surfaces. They can be pressed into locked position by hand, or lightly tapped with a mallet or hammer.
Palnut Push-On Top Hats are an attractive fastening solution that eliminates costly machine threading. Insertion and retention to the stud depends on the stud size and material. Also known as axel cap nuts, hat-retainers, or top hat nuts – Palnut Push-On Top Hats are strong fasteners that give your project a clean, finished appearance, while also providing a secure grip. Available in a variety of sizes and finishes.
