CAGE NUT


Cage nut can be assembled easily into position without the need for special tools and it is consists of a square nut in a spring steel cage which wraps around the nut. The cage has two wings that when compressed allow the cage to be inserted into the square holes in equipment racks, and while released hold the nut in position behind the hole.
Using cage nuts mounted in square holes provides several benefits over threaded holes directly in the cage. First, one has the flexibility to choose the size of nuts and bolts at a time after the cage is installed.  Second, it is easy to  replace. Third, this can allow for a better strength-to-weight ratio, as only the nuts need to be made of a strong material suitable for threading. (reference by wikipedia.)
