T-Nuts

T-Nuts

Our range of t-nuts are made from different metal materials to create a durable and reliable element for your manufacturing needs. They are ideal for use when you need to fasten a wood, particle, or composite materials workpiece. Their design leaves a flush surface to enhance the aesthetic value of your equipment. By inserting the dowel into the T-slot, by means of a simple rotation, the toothed surface will be inserted into the profile to guarantee its anchoring. The high-performing metals we use are:

  • steel
  • burnished steel
  • galvanised steel
  • stainless steel

To provide direction when using our components, we supply versions with a guide and non-slip device. The elastic lamina, located outside the dowel, allows it to slide avoiding accidental vertical slipping. The dowels for T-slots with guide step and device with ball and spring placed inside the dowel allow them to slide, preventing accidental vertical movement. These elements are highly recommended for use with fixing hinges for aluminium sections.

That’s right, our dowels are suitable for use on aluminium profiles, even where rapid insertion is required. To make this even easier, we provide a range of quick-insert nuts. To ensure secure fitting, insert the dowel upright into the T-slot and rotating it clockwise by 90°. To remove the dowel from the slot, rotate it anticlockwise by 90°.

Alongside individual Elesa t-nuts, we supply kits for the assembly of various components. If you need to fix varied elements to 30, 40, and 45mm profiles, these kits are the perfect solution. Our catalogue of kits feature differing screw styles with hexagon sockets, including cylindrical-head, countersunk head, button head, and low cylindrical-head. Kit GN965 is compatible with T-slots GN506, and is highly recommended for fixing hinges, handles, nuts etc on aluminium profiles of 30 and 40 mm. Kit GN968 can be paired with GN505 T-slots and includes a screw with a special thread deformation allows a higher tightening torque to be applied, offering even more secure fitting of the dowel.

Whenever you require a t-nut, t-slot or grub screw, you can find all of these and more in the Elesa catalogue.
