Rittal EL 2092.200 cage nuts in silver finish with an M6 thread are supplied in a pack of 50 and designed for secure mounting of equipment in standard 19-inch racks, electrical cabinets and network enclosures.

Each pack weighs approximately 200 g and is intended for industrial and IT installation tasks where durable, replaceable fastening elements are required.

Advantages

The cage nut design provides a resilient spring steel housing that clips into square or punched mounting holes, absorbing vibration and allowing slight alignment adjustments during installation. Silver finish offers corrosion resistance suitable for indoor enclosures and cabinets. Supplied as a pack of 50, the set ensures a consistent supply of matching M6 mounting points for multiple racks or repeated maintenance operations. The parts are compact and lightweight, simplifying storage and handling on site.

How to use

Align the cage nut housing with the square or punched hole in the rack or enclosure and press the housing into the hole until it clips into place. Ensure the threaded nut is correctly oriented to accept an M6 screw. Use an M6 machine screw or bolt to fasten equipment, tightening to appropriate torque for the mounted component and installation standard. For removal, depress the cage spring or use a suitable tool to release the housing before pulling it out.

Usage recommendations

Check compatibility of the cage nut with the mounting hole size and the thickness of the mounting flange before installation. Use M6 screws of appropriate length to avoid protrusion into internal equipment or obstruction of internal components. For outdoor or high-humidity environments consider additional protective measures if required by the installation specifications.
