A nut cap and assembly therewith is provided. The capped nut assembly is made up of a nut body and a cap. The cap is sleeved over the nut body with its side wall surrounding polygonal side walls of the body and a closed end of the cap overlies the outer end of the nut body. The outer end of the nut body has an engagement member protruding therefrom, and the inside surface of the hollow shell has a ramping member at a location that it is adapted to strike the engagement member whenever the cap is rotated about the nut body such that the ramping member biases a resilient lip portion in the open end of the cap and snap fitted to the collar portion in a direction to release the holding force of the lip portion on the collar portion.
