Troubleshooting
T-Nut bolt does not fit securely in T-slot
Verify that the T-slot dimensions on your lathe match the specifications of the Sealey SM27TNS bolt. Ensure the bolt head is correctly oriented to seat within the slot.
Bolt threads feel stiff or difficult to engage
Clean any debris from the bolt threads and the corresponding thread in your clamping stud. Apply a small amount of light machine oil to the threads.
Bolt spins but does not tighten the fixture
Ensure the T-Nut bolt head is fully seated in the T-slot and that the bolt is oriented correctly to engage the threads of your clamping stud. Check that the clamping stud is not cross-threaded.
