Propell nuts excel in applications where there is a danger of splitting, either due to material hardness or material thickness. They are also good for end-grain applications, such as leveller feet.
They have 7/8" diameter flanges with a 5/8" barrel height and require a 3/8" pilot hole.
Sold in packages of 10 or 100.
Propell nuts (5/16-18 thread) are designed for applications where a standard fastener risks splitting the wood, such as brittle or thin material and end-grain joints like leveller feet.
Drill a 3/8" pilot hole into the wood, then drive the propell nut in until its flange sits flush against the surface. A bolt then threads into the 5/16-18 thread to complete the fastening.
These come with a 5/16-18 thread and a 7/8" diameter flange.
They're available in packages of 10 or 100, so you can get just enough for a single project or stock up for repeat use.
