What Are The Thread Types Of 4 Prong T Nuts?

4-prong T-nuts are typically available with various thread types to accommodate different applications. The most common thread types for 4-prong T-nuts include:

Coarse Thread (UNC – Unified National Coarse):

These threads are commonly used for general-purpose applications. They are designed for quick and easy assembly and are often found in wood and softer materials.

Examples: 1/4″-20, 5/16″-18, 3/8″-16.

Fine Thread (UNF – Unified National Fine):

These threads are used when a higher degree of precision is required, often in harder materials or for applications requiring a tighter fit.

Examples: 1/4″-28, 5/16″-24, 3/8″-24.

Metric Threads:

These threads are based on the metric system and are commonly used in countries that use the metric system as their standard.

Examples: M6x1, M8x1.25, M10x1.5.

Custom Threads:

For specific applications, T-nuts can be manufactured with custom thread types to meet unique requirements. This is less common and typically done on a per-order basis.

Each thread type serves different purposes depending on the requirements of the project, such as the material being used, the need for load-bearing capacity, and the precision of the fit. When selecting a 4-prong T-nut, it is important to consider the thread type that best suits your specific application.
