Products Description
Designed specifically for timber, engineered wood, particleboard, and other soft substrates, the Four Claw Tee Nut (also known as a tee nut or blind nut) provides a durable, strong threaded socket within soft materials. Featuring a hollow internally threaded barrel connected to a flat flange, this fastener is equipped with four sharp prongs (claws). When installed, these prongs dig deeply into the mounting surface to anchor the nut securely, preventing it from spinning or loosening during assembly. Once fully seated, it leaves a clean, flush profile on the surface.
Simple Step-by-Step Installation Guide
01
Drill the Hole
Select a drill bit slightly larger in diameter than the outer barrel of the Four Claw Tee Nut and bore a hole through your material.
02
Position the Nut
Align the barrel with the drilled hole and press or gently tap the flange using a hammer until the four claws make initial contact with the wood.
03
Drive the Bolt
Insert a matching bolt from the opposite side and thread it into the nut.
04
Draw It Flush
Tighten the bolt down. The clamping force will draw the four-pronged flange tightly into the substrate until it rests completely flat against the surface.
Application & Removal Considerations
Primary Function
Four Claw Tee Nuts allow you to attach standard machine-threaded bolts to wood projects reliably. Once the claws bite into the wood, you get a permanent, sturdy metallic thread that allows bolts to be installed, tightened, or removed repeatedly without stripping the timber.
Removal Note
Because these fasteners are engineered for permanent anchorage, removing them is not recommended. If extraction is unavoidable, they must be carefully pried out, which may cause cosmetic or structural damage to the surrounding wood.
