3 & 4 Prong TEE Nuts with Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
3 Prong and 4 Prong TEE Nuts with Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
When reliable threaded fastening is required in wood, composite materials, or soft substrates, 3 prong and 4 prong TEE nuts with clear Zinc Cr3 plating provide a durable and corrosion-resistant solution. Commonly used in woodworking, furniture manufacturing, cabinetry, and light industrial applications, these TEE nuts deliver strong holding power, easy installation, and long-term performance.
What Are 3 and 4 Prong TEE Nuts?
Secure Threaded Inserts
TEE nuts are internally threaded fasteners designed to be installed into wood or other soft materials to create a strong, reusable thread. The prongs dig into the material as the nut is installed, preventing rotation and pull-out when bolts are tightened.
3 Prong vs 4 Prong Design
A 3 prong TEE nut features three evenly spaced prongs that provide solid anchoring in standard applications. A 4 prong TEE nut adds an additional prong, increasing surface contact and holding strength. This makes 4 prong TEE nuts ideal for higher load requirements or applications subject to vibration.
Benefits of Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating
Enhanced Corrosion Resistance
Clear Zinc Cr3 (trivalent chromium) plating provides effective protection against rust and oxidation. This environmentally friendly coating extends the service life of TEE nuts, making them suitable for indoor and light outdoor use where moisture exposure may occur.
Increased Durability and Wear Resistance
The Zinc Cr3 coating adds a protective barrier that reduces wear during installation and repeated bolt removal. This helps maintain thread integrity and overall fastener strength over time.
Performance and Installation Advantages
Superior Grip and Stability
The pronged design anchors the TEE nut securely into the material, preventing spinning or loosening under load. This ensures a stable, long-lasting threaded connection.
Fast and Easy Installation
3 prong and 4 prong TEE nuts are easy to install by pressing or hammering them into pre-drilled holes, making them ideal for both DIY projects and high-volume production environments.
Versatile Application Use
Reliable Fastening Across Industries
These clear Zinc Cr3 plated TEE nuts are widely used in furniture assembly, cabinetry, speaker enclosures, workbenches, jigs, and general industrial fixtures where dependable threaded inserts are required.
Durable and Dependable Fastening Solution
3 prong and 4 prong TEE nuts with clear Zinc Cr3 plating offer a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and ease of use. Their secure grip and long service life make them a trusted fastening choice for professional and DIY applications alike.
