T-Nut for 1/2"-13 Threaded Stems

T-Nut for 1/2"-13 Threaded Stems - Part # M1/2TNUT The T-nut (tee nut) is a low-profile nut with prongs (teeth) that digs into the grain of wood to secure it. Provides an easy method to attaching threaded stem casters, glides or bolt to wood. Product Specs: Thread Size: 1/2- 13 Total Diameter: 1.25" Diameter of Thread Barrel: 0.591" Total Height: 0.47" Nail Length: 0.32" Installation: Drill a hole the same size as the T-nut’s barrel. Push the T-nut in from the back side (prongs toward the wood) and tap it flat. Alternatively you can use a wrench to tighten a bolt, pulling the t-nut into the wood. Best practices: Line the prongs with the grain & tap gently to avoid splitting. Don’t over-tighten; that can make the T-nut spin. In soft/crumbly wood, add a bit of wood glue or epoxy for extra hold.
