The RCNIT is a cage nut insertion tool designed for anyone working with rack-mounted equipment. It makes cage nut installation and removal fast, easy and tool-free, and it is compatible with virtually any rack cage nut. IT, AV and networking technicians use it to eliminate finger strain and frustration when loading square hole rails, saving time on every install.

Using the tool is straightforward: insert the cage nut's top lip into the square hole, insert the RCNIT, and pull the bottom cage nut lip into place. The result is quicker, safer installation of square hole hardware compared with wrestling cage nuts into place by hand.

The RCNIT has a zinc-plated finish and is compact and lightweight, with a shipping weight of just 0.04 lbs (0.02 kg), so it drops easily into any technician's toolkit or service bag. Because it works with square rail holes generally rather than one specific rail profile, a single tool covers a wide range of racks, cabinets and open frame installations.

For procurement teams, this part is TAA-compliant for federal GSA schedule purchases within the USA, is RoHS and REACH compliant, and is USMCA compliant with a country of origin of Canada. It is manufactured in North America within an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility.
