Rotary T Nuts

Rotary T Nuts can be inserted from the top of a T slot, unlike normal T Nuts, which must be inserted from the end of the slot. This allows adding T Nuts and studs anywhere on the table without tearing down any existing setups. Made of alloy steel to provide maximum strength. Available to fit table-slot sizes from 1/2 to 1" (14 to 20mm in metric), in thread sizes from 3/8-16 to 3/4-10 (M10 to M16 in metric).

Application Information

Safety-Stop Feature

The T Nuts are tapped to a precise, limited depth so that the threads stop one thread short of going through the nut. This feature stops the stud before it extends through the nut and contacts the bottom of the T slot, where continued tightening could jack the T Nut up and out of the table, breaking the table slot. This important feature prevents accidental damage to expensive machine tables.

Safety Precautions

Make sure that the area where the Rotary T Nut will be inserted is clear of debris, to allow the T nut to turn a full 60° after insertion. This ensures that the T nut will provide full load-bearing strength.
