Buyer Questions

Frequently asked questions

How do I install a pronged T-nut correctly?

Drill a clearance hole of the specified size (typically slightly larger than the bolt diameter). Position the T-nut on the back side of the workpiece with prongs against the wood, then hammer the flange flush. The prongs bite into the wood and prevent the T-nut from rotating when the bolt is tightened.
