12-gauge steel fastener easily and securely connects table tops or desk tops to their apron. Using a 11/16” (or 5/8" will work in a pinch) spade or forstner bit, simply bore a shallow hole in the rail or apron of your project, so the fastener top sits flush with the top of rail.

Attach the fastener with a #6 screw (sold separately) into the apron, then secure the wooden top surface with another #6 screw. Simple chisel work near the shallow boring may be necessary to ensure a proper bedding and free lateral movement of the fastener.

Fasteners are countersunk on opposite sides to keep screw heads flush. It's important to secure screws to a snug fit, but do not over tighten to allow for seasonal wood movement.

Available in package quantities of 10, 20, 30 or 50.
