T-Nuts can
be used to secure our threaded stem casters to wooden items. Here we show the
typical use of the T-Nut for both a Horizontal and a Vertical
Application.
In the Horizontal
Application, you would drill a hole equal to the diameter of the
barrel of the T-Nut and completely thru your wood. Hammer the T-Nut into the
hole and thread your caster in from the bottom. This is the strongest
mounting.
The Vertical
Application is for attaching casters to the bottom of legs and
into the end grain of the wood. This is not an
exceptionally strong way to mount! Drill your hole equal to the
diameter of the barrel of the T-Nut and to the depth of the length of the stem
of the caster plus about 1/4". Apply 2 part epoxy to the T-Nut for additional
strength. Hammer the T-Nut into the hole and thread your caster in from the
bottom. You must use epoxy as we have had problems
with some woods where the nuts ( and the casters ) fall off. |
