PRONGED TEE NUT

PRONGED TEE NUT

Pronged tee nuts (also known as T-nuts or blind nuts) are fasteners used primarily in woodworking and composite materials to provide a threaded socket for bolts.

They feature a long, thin barrel and a flange with sharp "claws" or prongs that bite into the material to prevent rotation when a bolt is tightened.

Common Applications

These nuts are ideal for applications requiring a flush surface or where the connection must be frequently disassembled without damaging the wood:

  • Furniture Assembly: Securing table legs, sofa frames, and office desks.
  • Climbing Walls: Mounting holds onto plywood panels.
  • Soft Furnishings: Creating strong timber connections in upholstered items.
  • Sporting Equipment: Securing bindings on snowboards and skis.

Installation Guide

For a professional, flush finish, follow these steps to avoid splitting the wood:

  1. Pre-drill: Drill a hole matching the outer diameter of the barrel (e.g., use an 8mm bit for an M6 nut).
  2. Align: Insert the barrel into the hole from the back of the workpiece so the prongs face the surface.
  3. Seat the Nut: Tap the flange lightly with a mallet to set the prongs.
  4. Draw-in Method: To prevent wood splitting or bent prongs, use a bolt and washer from the opposite side. Tighten the bolt with a ratchet to pull the nut flush into the material.
