Product Description
The T Nut, also known as a Tee Nut, is used to create a strong internal machine thread inside wood panels while keeping the installation surface neat and flat. It is installed from the back side of the panel, and the four prongs bite into the wood to help prevent movement or spinning during bolt tightening.
This product is suitable for furniture manufacturers, woodworking suppliers, cabinet makers, workbench producers, speaker box manufacturers, and hardware distributors. It is commonly used when a reusable threaded connection is required in wood, plywood, MDF, or similar panel materials.
Unlike screw-in insert nuts, the T nut is especially suitable for applications where the buyer can access the back side of the wood panel and needs a strong flat-mounted threaded connection.
