🔩 Brass Ball Cap Nuts – Lamp Finial Screw Caps (Female Thread M3–M12, Ball Dia 6–25mm)

If you’re restoring an old chandelier, building a custom table lamp, or just need a classy way to cap a threaded rod, these brass ball cap nuts are a simple upgrade. They screw onto male threads (M3 to M12) and cover the end with a polished brass ball. No more exposed nut or ugly acorn cap – the rounded shape looks like a tiny decorative finial. I’ve used them on lamp harp assemblies, furniture legs, and even as drawer pulls. Ball diameters range from 6mm (small and subtle) up to 25mm (bold and weighty). Solid brass, no plating to chip. Just warm, natural metal that ages gracefully.

✨ Why These Threaded Brass Ball Caps Belong in Your Workshop

💡 Perfect for lamps & chandeliers – Screws onto the top of a lamp harp or the end of a threaded rod to secure the shade and add a decorative finish. A true lamp finial screw cap.

🔩 Female threads M3 to M12 – M3, M4, M5, M6, M10, and M12. Match the thread to your rod or stud. The internal thread depth is proportional to the ball size.

🎾 Ball diameters from 6mm to 25mm – Choose 6mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 16mm, 17.5mm, 20mm, 21.5mm, or 25mm. Smaller for delicate fixtures, larger for substantial furniture or heavy lamps.

🟤 Solid brass construction – no plating – Raw brass has a warm, golden tone that darkens nicely over time. No cheap zinc or plastic. Polishes easily if you want to keep it shiny.

🛠️ Multi‑purpose: furniture, knobs, finials – Use as a decorative cap on exposed bolts, a handle for small drawers, a foot for a metal stand, or a final touch on a custom metalwork project.

📐 Precise metric threads – Cleanly cut, consistent pitch. Screws on smoothly without cross‑threading. Refer to the attached parameter diagram for exact thread length and ball dimensions per size.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions – Brass Ball Cap Nuts

💡 Will these fit a standard lamp harp? What thread size do I need?
Most table lamp harps use a 1/4"-27 thread (UNS), not metric. However, many imported lamps and custom builds use M4, M5, or M6. Measure the threaded stud on your lamp. If it’s about 5mm diameter with fine threads, it’s likely M5 or M6. For vintage US lamps, you may need a thread adapter. Our M6 cap fits snugly on 6mm metric rod. When in doubt, order a few sizes to test.
🔩 Do these caps come with a set screw or just a blind hole?
They are female threaded caps – a blind threaded hole inside the ball. You screw the cap onto the male thread until it tightens against the shoulder or the end of the rod. No set screw needed. For permanent mounting, you can add a drop of threadlocker. For occasional adjustment, hand-tight is usually enough.
🟤 Will raw brass tarnish? How do I clean it?
Yes, unfinished brass will naturally darken and develop a patina over time – many people prefer that vintage look. To keep it shiny, polish with a soft cloth and a mild brass cleaner (like Brasso) or a paste of lemon juice and baking soda. If you want a long‑lasting shine without maintenance, you can spray a clear lacquer, but that’s optional.
📏 How do I select the right ball diameter for my project?
Smaller balls (6–12mm) work well on delicate lamps, jewelry boxes, or as screw covers on thin furniture. Medium (15–20mm) is the sweet spot for most table lamps, drawer knobs, or foot caps. Large (21.5–25mm) makes a statement – great for chandeliers, heavy floor lamps, or as a prominent finial on a cabinet. Also consider the thread size: M3–M5 usually pair with 6–12mm balls; M6–M12 pair with 15–25mm balls.
🛠️ Can I use these outdoors or in a bathroom?
Brass naturally resists corrosion better than steel, but it will eventually tarnish from moisture. They’re fine for indoor use (living rooms, bedrooms, dry workshops). For bathrooms or covered outdoor areas, the brass will still hold up structurally but may develop a darker patina faster. If you need a true weatherproof finish, consider lacquering or using stainless steel options.
