Three mounting holes are a bit small

ADDED: I originally canceled the launch because the three mounting holes were too small. I had to drill holes to use even tiny screws. However, I did notice that they are advertised as Brad Hold Tee Nuts, meaning they are meant to be attached with small nails. My fault is that I misread the description. MODIFIED: I purchased 5/16 - 18 x 5/8 tees from Hard-To-Find-Fasters on 10th July '17 and there were 10 tees in the pack. The nuts are 5/8 inch deep which means this is the length of the hole you need to drill. The nuts are strong, well made and deeper than most. But the three mounting holes are only about 5/64" in diameter. I had to drill them to 7/64" to get the screws in with enough holding power. Product. ORIGINAL: If you're attaching the tees to the back of the mounting surface, you'll probably get by with small nails for attachment. assembly if you wish, or even cheaper serrated T-nuts. With this method, the screw enters the back of the t-nut and pulls the wide end into the back of the mounting surface, making the t-nut permanently tight and secure. A drill bit is recommended in the product description 25/64" for the T-mount. However, I have found that a 3/8" drill bit (which is actually slightly smaller) works perfectly. This may be good news for some , as 25/64 inch drills are usually only found in larger drill sets.
