The Metal Framing System

1 Insert the appropriate Channel Nut with spring,
parallel to the slot edges, anywhere along the
continuous open slot of the channel.

2 Depress the Channel Nut with spring
below the in-turned channel edges.
Rotate one quarter turn clock-wise,
perpendicular, and release pressure
on the nut.
The Nut will lock in-place, its pyramid
grip enhanced grooves aligning
with the underside of the channel's
in-turned edges; the spring being
designed to hold the nut in place
during assembly.

4 Properly torquing the bolt draws the Channel Nut with spring
up against the in-turned channel lips, forming a strong,
secure clamping connection.
Use caution not to bottom the bolt (select one of sufficient
length, but not so long as to contact the inside back). Do
not over torque the bolt.

3

Fitting, bracket, or accessory, is located on the channel
face over the Channel Nut with spring.
An appropriate diameter and length of bolt is inserted,
and the fitting is adjusted for location at this time.
