WELL NUT 1/4"-20 X 5/8" MPN-1336971

Discover the versatility and reliability of well nuts, an innovative fastening solution designed for a wide range of applications, particularly where a strong, sealed, and vibration-dampening connection is required. These unique fasteners combine the function of a bolt and an anchor, making them ideal for sheet metal, fiberglass, and plastic applications where traditional threaded inserts cannot be used.

Key Features:

• Vibration Dampening: Effectively absorbs vibrations, reducing noise and wear on connected components.
• Secure Anchorage: Forms a strong, reliable anchor point for bolts, ensuring a secure and lasting connection.

Well nuts offer a superior alternative to traditional nuts and bolts in many scenarios. Their design allows them to expand and grip the material from behind, creating a robust anchor that can withstand significant pulling forces. This makes them particularly valuable in marine environments where exposure to water and salt is common, and where vibration from engines and waves can loosen standard fasteners. The ability to create a watertight seal is another significant benefit, protecting underlying components from water damage and corrosion, which is critical for maintaining the structural integrity and functionality of marine equipment.

The ease of installation is a major advantage, requiring only a simple bolt and a wrench to install. This single-sided installation capability is invaluable for projects where access to the back of the material is limited or impossible. The well nut's threaded portion allows for standard machine screws or bolts to be inserted, while the rubber body compresses and expands, gripping the material to create a secure hold. This makes them perfect for attaching accessories, mounting hardware, and securing panels in boats, RVs, and other vehicles. Their ability to conform to slightly irregular surfaces also contributes to a reliable and secure fit, making them a go-to choice for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike seeking a durable and effective fastening solution.
