As a carpenter many of my projects involve utilizing threaded anchors such as these T-nuts. The trouble most people in my profession have the most is knowing which applications to properly use them. Whenever misused, they can spin out and ruin a project. They can also cross-thread and or bend out of shape.I didn't experience any of problems with these particular t-nuts.

Even without being able to use all of this assortment, based on the combination of sizes, it was still a great price for what we could use. The nuts work quite well and allows changes in placement for holds. Pre-drilling the right size made it an easy install, just make sure your measurements are correct.

Nothing to like or dislike. Having deferring sizes is a plus.

These are simple things so not a lot to say. Threads are in spec and the 1/4-20 size worked perfectly fine in a speaker baffle.

This pack of 180 blind t-nuts come in three different sizes in a hardshell plastic case. I'm using them on a rock wall project so need quite a few of these. I'll probably need more but the varying sizes are good for smaller holds that can use a smaller bolt. Drill the hole, place the t-nut in, tighten from the opposite side with the bolt. The downward facing teeth lock the nut into your substrate.

Jigs are a big part of making a project in a woodworking shop. Many times these jigs are single use, but many times, they are developed for continued use and given adjustability. This is where these t-nuts come to play. Sliding fences, moveable stops, hold-downs are all variations that can exploit the beauty of a t-nut.In this kit you get an ample supply of 3 sizes of t-nuts: 1/4"x20, 5/16"x18 and 3/8"x16. These are the most frequently used if you aren't in metric. And, the distribution is very conscious of the frequency of use for each at 100, 50 and 30, respectively. These have 4 prongs, I have had some with only 3 prongs. I wouldn't stay that is very significant. One important factor on t-nuts is the length of the threaded shaft. Longer is better as it increases the thread capture. But, not so long as to exceed the material thickness. These are 3/8", 7/16" and 1/2", respectively, which includes the pronged flange. I would have liked longer but there are many cases where less is more. As long as the threading is good, and they are, there's not much more to add on such a simple product. Maybe the pricing could be a little more competitive but you do get 180 of them under a dime a piece.Just as an aside, I never just simply pound these in. I use a forstner bit to counterbore a recess for the flange and use a brad point to drill the hole for the threaded shaft. Then, I always drill the smallest of pilot holes for the prongs to follow. Even at that, I do not pound them in fully; I just start them out and let the tightening of the bolt drive the remainder of the spikes until fully seated.

These are made pretty darned well. I like the variety and their quality. I will use some of these on an ongoing project. If I experience any trouble, I will update this review. Otherwise, they are good to go!Update:Well, I used some of these on a few brackets I made and I found that using a bolt to draw the nut into the redwood caused the prongs to fold over before the nut was seated. However, hammering them in worked much better.My takeaway is that you should hammer them in unless you are willing to drill, cut or pry them out if they fold over.
