Description
Chem-Set F1-RB38 No-Drill Bonding Fastener is a female-thread bonding mount built around a 38 mm round baseplate. This RB38 bonding fastener gives fabricators a way to add a threaded attachment point where drilling, tapping, or welding is not the right fit for the surface, finish, or installation sequence.
RB38 Bonding Fastener Benefits
- Round 38 mm baseplate spreads load across a broader adhesive bond area.
- Female-thread format supports removable hardware and service access after the base is bonded in place.
- No-drill installation helps protect finished panels, stone, composites, and other surfaces where drilling can cause damage or rework.
- Chem-Set catalog options include multiple thread sizes and plating choices to match the job requirement.
The current Chemical Concepts listing describes the F1-RB38 as a female hex nut mounted on a round 38 mm by 1.2 mm thick baseplate. The bonding fastener catalog also shows RB38 among the standard baseplate families and lists common inch thread options used in shop and field installation work, giving buyers a practical starting point when matching hardware to panel thickness, service load, and final assembly access.
Common Applications for RB38 Bonding Fastener
- Adding threaded attachment points on finished panels without drilling through the face.
- Countertop, enclosure, and equipment assemblies that need removable hardware after adhesive cure.
- Composite, metal, and coated-surface jobs where weld heat or backside access is not available.
- Shop-standard mounting layouts that need repeatable baseplate geometry.
