Can I reuse a cage nut after removing equipment?

Usually, yes, if the cage still grips the rail properly and the M6 thread is undamaged. Inspect the spring ears and thread before reusing it.

Replace any fixing that is distorted, badly worn or rough enough that the screw no longer starts and turns normally.
