Yes, provided they are paired with an appropriate anchoring compound or expansion mechanism to ensure a secure fit in the hole.
While A2-304 is resistant, A4-grade stainless steel is generally recommended for direct marine exposure. A2-304 is best for general outdoor and inland use.
Yes, these are commonly used to create high-strength threaded points in timber, which is ideal for flat-pack assembly or detachable structures.
The specific model mentioned is an M8 x 90, meaning it features an M8 internal diameter with a 90mm length.
Measure the bolt length and ensure the drill hole depth allows the bolt to fully engage the socket without bottoming out.
Verify that the bolt is M8 and not a different thread pitch. Ensure no debris or metal shavings are inside the socket channel.
The hole in the substrate may be too large. Use a smaller drill bit or a high-strength industrial adhesive to secure the socket exterior.
To install, ensure the host material (wood or masonry) is drilled to the appropriate diameter to accommodate the socket body. Gently drive the socket into position until it sits flush with the surface.
Compatibility: These sockets are strictly compatible with standard M8-threaded bolts. Using non-metric or mismatched thread pitches will damage the internal threading of the socket.
Care: While A2-304 stainless steel is highly resistant, it is not impervious to extreme chemical exposure. To keep the sockets in peak condition, avoid using steel wool or carbon-steel brushes for cleaning, as these can leave behind particles that may cause surface oxidation; instead, use a non-metallic abrasive pad if cleaning is necessary.
