It has a long, thin body and a flange at one end, resembling a T in profile. The flanges of T-Nuts often have hooks or serrations on the prongs that sink into a wooden work piece, providing better retention.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eZinc coatings prevent oxidation of the protected metal to create a longer lasting finish. It does this by forming a barrier and by acting as a sacrificial anode if this barrier is damaged. Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not trigger a breakdown of the substrate’s surface integrity as it is formed. The zinc oxide, if left intact, can act as a barrier to further oxidation, in a way similar to the protection afforded to aluminium and stainless steels by their oxide layers.","brand":"ForgeFix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41383632044214,"sku":"TB-FORPTN8M-01","price":1.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0532\/7054\/4566\/files\/FORPTN8.png?v=1727988780","url":"https:\/\/trade-mart.co.uk\/products\/forgefix-10ptn8-pronged-t-nuts-zp-m8-bag-10","provider":"trade-mart.co.uk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
