TYPES OF T-Nuts  

T-nut

pronged T-Nuts  

Pronged T-Nuts offer a robust and dependable anchoring solution in both wood and plastic materials. These Tee Nuts are designed to fit into a pre-drilled hole and are easily tapped into place. Their flush-fitting design eliminates the need for counterboring. Additionally, they feature a self-locking mechanism that ensures they stay in place without rotating, whether during manual or automated assembly.

  • Easy to fix
  • Suitable for automatic insertion
  • Low cost
  • Flush fitting
  • Self-locking
  • 4 Prong - JNP type
  • Automatic fed - JNT type
  • Range of sizes

Rivet T-Nuts 

Rivet T-Nuts are designed to be machine-inserted and are manufactured through. They feature a robust heavy flange and a large head to ensure strength and pull-through resistance. The result is an efficient fast, deep and straight insertion of the Tee Nut. This contributes to final product quality and production efficiency. 

When inserted, the unthreaded portion of the barrel is riveted over to achieve maximum push-out resistance, eliminating the need for over-stapling. The riveted area of the T-Nut creates an effective lead-in for the bolt thread for easier assembly. This lead-in feature minimises cross-threading problems. This feature is particularly beneficial when customers need to attach castors after delivery. 

Once inserted, the unthreaded rivet portion of the T-Nut provides a good lead for the screw or bolt, enabling easier assembly and eliminating the requirement for over-stapling. 

  • Strong 
  • Good pull-through resistance 
  • Fast, deep, straight insertion 
  • Better final product quality 
  • Production efficiency
  • Good lead for the screw or bolt 
  • No over-stapling required

We supply floor-standing T-Nut insertion machines and table-top insertion machines which provide speed and flexibility when inserting your Tee Nuts. These sigma machines ensure a deeper, straighter and more consistent insertion of your T Nut.

Floor-standing machines provide the greatest number of insertions per hour. A tabletop machine is better suited to mid to low-volume applications. Both can greatly increase productivity.
