Vertex 3413I T-nut — compatible with 7/16" T-slots, 3/8-16" thread

The Vertex 3413I T-nut is a single-piece fastening insert designed to secure clamps and fixtures in 7/16" T-slots on machine tables and workbenches.

• Compatible with 7/16" T-slots
• 3/8-16" internal thread
• Lightweight at 0.023 kg
• Single-piece design for easy placement

Secure hold for clamping and fixturing

A purpose-made fastening component, the 3413I T-nut delivers consistent clamping performance by matching common table grooves. Its main advantage is mechanical compatibility: the 7/16" T-slot fit ensures the insert sits flush and resists rotation under load, while the 3/8-16" thread accepts widely used clamping bolts. For workshop planners and maintenance teams, this means fewer non‑compatible parts in stock and shorter setup times, improving throughput in repetitive machining or assembly tasks.

Predictable fit reduces setup time

Supplied in a compact form with dimensions 11/16 x 7/8 x 1/2", the component offers predictable geometry for fixture designers and machinists. The recorded mass of 0.023 kg makes handling and inventory storage straightforward, and the standardised thread size simplifies parts sourcing. Explaining the term: a T-nut is a sliding insert that engages the T-shaped groove on a machine table, allowing bolts to be tightened from above—this standardisation reduces trial‑and‑error during jigs and fixture assembly and helps maintain consistent clamping forces.

Simple installation and robust positioning

The single-piece construction supports rapid placement into the slot and stable seating during bolt tensioning, which benefits repetitive operations and modular fixturing. With no complex assembly required, the insert is ideal where fast changeovers are needed. The design also minimises the risk of misalignment when tightening clamping hardware, contributing to stable workholding and fewer interruptions on the shop floor.
