Not very ""decorative""
14 years ago
I use these for decorative caps in the construction of wood-gear clocks. The previous reviewer is correct in saying that these are not well finished and not ""decorative"" [...]. They are, however, solid brass, so I spin them on a threaded rod in the drill press and polish them with fine abrasive paper and Nevr-Dull, after which they look fine.

These acorn nuts are perfectly functional, but for a part with a decorative purpose, they are lacking. I had to spin them in a drill press and polish them with grades of sandpaper and Never-Dull to make them presentable on a wooden clock frame.

Don't trust the photo
14 years ago
The example photo shows a nice crown on the acorn nut. However, the actual crown looks like they have all been flattened with a hammer. I was looking more for an aesthetic look rather than an industrial look. Will not order these again unless I can get what the photo actually looks like.

Q: What is the thread depth (height) of the 1/2-13 brass cap nut?
12 years ago3 Answers
A: Tom: The brass Acorn Nuts I purchased 1/4__quote__ X 20, however the proportion of the usable thread depth and depth of the inside dome from the face of the nut should be comparable. Your measurements would be twice those of the 1/4' nuts shown below..... 1/4__quote__ brass acorn nut measures .280 inch of usable thread inside of the nut. .350 inch of space from face to the inside of the dome.
