Keep-Nut Male Allen Post, 1/4-20 Thread x 1 in

Description

1 inch Keep-Nut Allen post provides a 1-inch male threaded connection for compatible 1/4-20 Keep-Nut press-in inserts. It is commonly used to connect sink clips, cladding hardware, panels, and other removable components to an installed insert without applying adhesive to the threaded connection.

Fitment and Common Uses

This post is sized for the 1/4-20 Keep-Nut system and threads into the insert after the insert has been correctly seated in the substrate. In an undermount sink assembly, the post can carry the clip, washer, and nut hardware used to hold the sink rim. It can also provide a serviceable mounting point for panels or cladding where the attached component may need to be removed later. The internal Allen drive gives the installer a positive way to seat or remove the post without gripping and marking its outside surface.

Length Selection

The listed length is the overall one-inch post length. The portion threaded into the Keep-Nut reduces the amount that remains exposed above the substrate, so installers should account for insert engagement, clip or panel thickness, washers, and the selected nut when checking fit. Other post lengths are available within the same family for assemblies that need more stand-off distance. Confirm the insert thread and required exposed length before ordering.
