E-Z LOK 400-5 Knife Threaded Inserts for Hardwood 5/16-18 (10 Pack)

E-Z Knife™ inserts are designed for use in hard woods, like oak, cherry, and maple. E-Z Knife™ inserts are ideal for use wherever assembly or disassembly could lead to thread erosion or stripping. Also, E-Z Knife™ inserts for wood use a proprietary external “knife” thread to slice into the wood, which provides superior holding power.

Applications:

• Cabinetry & Furniture
  
• Partitions
  
• Display Cases
  
• Beer Tap Handles
  
• Shipping Containers
  
• Anywhere a fastener will be used in wood
  

Installation:

E-Z Knife threaded inserts are typically installed with the slots up. The slots accommodate a screwdriver or E-Z LOK drive tool. For harder woods, screwdriver installation isn't practical. Installation can be accomplished with the drive tool or using a bolt and jam nuts. When using the bolt/jam nuts installation technique, the slotted end of the insert can be either up or down.
